    Combining COTS hardware with 3D printed PLA

    Greetings, I just signed up here, and I hope to contribute some ideas regarding the tricky business of using PLA for prototyping, or light duty. The image shows a test assembly I used to find the optimal dimensions for a pulley. The blue is PLA+ (tough PLA), and also the white disk, which is...
