Thanks! It did, I have a box with hundreds of failed parts. Never worked with metal, but PLA is rigid enough for this (at least for now). The most stressed mechanism here are probably the cams and cam followers, and the ones in the video are at least a couple of months old at this point. I will update if anything wears down!

If I can give you one tip switch to PETG (bed: 80 degrees, print at 240), it is much more stable dimensionally than PLA, especially over longer time. I've printed a couple of tons (literal, metric tons) of stuff over the last two years and have a farm of 40 printers, if I can help you somehow let me know.

Thank you for the advice! I will look into buying some PETG in the future and doing some tests on it.

Good luck, and looking forward to the next installment.
