I've decided I want to give these a try, the metal is good but I would prefer a more factory looking bracket. Should I just PayPal you?

Thanks for the insight!

I ordered a roll of PETG, hopefully I can get it to print well.

Circumstantially, I've had pla parts on the exterior of my car, out in the elements, that have been fine for over a year. I'm always up for trying something that will result in better quality though!

Great attitude!

You shouldn't have a problem with PETG, it prints as easily as PLA. Most brands (esun, overtrue, hatchbox) all generally print well at 230c with a 80c bed, open air, with no cooling fan, all other settings you can generally leave the same as PLA. Use a bit of extra strong hair spray to keep the first layer from curling up and you should get phenomenal quality prints.

For future batches you might want to consider not making these out of PLA. PLA is hygroscopic and becomes brittle over time, its particularly susceptible to breaking when under load for an extended period of time.

You'll notice if you load a PLA spool and leave it for a year or so, it just starts breaking apart between the spool roll and the extruder.

Use PETG instead, it'll print as easily as PLA (slightly hotter extruder and heated bed if available), but the end result will be be a part that should last a very very long time.

Consider PLA is used for biodegradable cups (bad relationship with moisture), and PETG is used for bottling for softdrinks (good relationship with moisture).
