3D Printing Resources
I'll update this post from time to time with products that I've found useful in my printing endeavors. This is just a partial list of the many items that go into creating 3D projects, from design and prototyping to finished items.

Siraya Tech Fibreheart PPA-CFIf you haven't tried PPA yet, it is amazing! I'm currently using it with vehicle parts for very high strength and durability. |

SUNLU TPU High Speed 95A TPUWorks great for all kinds of flex needs. Even though it is sold as "high speed" I still find the best results after drying are achieved with volumetric speeds reduced by about 30%. |

M10 Square Nuts, Stainless SteelI've been using these a lot on cargo accessories with T-slots for garage and truck projects. They are a little narrow for the T-slots on my Küat Ibex rack system, but I designed a very quick-printing spacer that drops in around each nut and they have held great in use on my truck rack all summer long! |

M10 Socket Head Cap ScrewsI've been using these a lot on cargo accessories with T-slots for garage and truck projects. They work perfectly with the SS square nuts and my 3DP spacers, but you may find you need a different length dependent on your project. |

M3 Screw Kit, 620 piecesI bought this kit 18 months ago and have found it very useful. Mainly for various 3DP projects, but the small fasteners have come in handy for a few home and vehicle projects as well. The 12.9 grade has been strong enough for everything (but one bad RC car crash, but that's another story). The lengths 6-20mm have covered all of my M3 fastener needs so far. |

Magnets:

I use magnets for all kinds of prints. Embedded, press-fit, and glue-in-place all work well depending on the nature of the print and application! |
