Huh, two threads on this part in an hour, was getting me confused....

Anyway, they're not a fast part to print, so the price is more than I'd like, but I do offer them on the website. I did have to tweak the design a bit to print reliably due to the overhangs. It's also a bit more stable now, less twisting on the bracket.

A fragile design too. Not much you can do about the thin standoff sections, can’t make ‘em thicker because they need to fit between the targets and hold the right size screws. And the tall spindly design limits the materials you can reliably print with on an FDM machine.

I’m actually printing an order for 10 of these right now. I just wish I could get them to print faster so I could drop the price. I know people need em but also need em to be cheaper. Hopefully when I jump to a resin printer I can work on the price problem.

About 2 hours in PLA. I found PET to be too stringy and doesn't adhere well on my print bed, never had much luck with nylon. ABS just turns into a slumped mess on the screw extensions. I know PLA probably isn't optimal either, as it's a bit on the brittle side, but the shape just needs something that doesn't deform at print temps on thin sections.

Saving up for an SLA printer which will change things dramatically..... but that's months away until I have the money and the one I want is available.

Completely agree, and most of my stuff I do PET these days as well. I've almost given up on ABS completely now except for lamp shields.

This particular part I've been running in my Black Knight for the past 4-5 months now without any failures, despite being PLA.
