(I have only tried one snap fit).<br /><br />I have not played much with ABS yet, just got a cartridge, but having difficulties with part warping and sticking to the print bed. So till I have more time to tinker with ABS, I am printing with PLA.cubeX-3D-printmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16386814853378553046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6539093728798325673.post-22947980817319151232013-06-05T09:49:38.268-07:002013-06-05T09:49:38.268-07:00Thank you very much again this is what I was looki...Thank you very much again this is what I was looking for.<br />:-)<br /> <br />Maybe you can make a study on the flexibility of the materials ABS and PLA. Can you make a snapper connection between two parts? It would be interesting to know the plain strein fracture toughness A % of the materials. I'm aware of the fact that this depends on how the part was layed out.<br /><br />Again many thanks!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6539093728798325673.post-28069809886908397402013-06-05T09:18:06.714-07:002013-06-05T09:18:06.714-07:00GMoneyPhx, thanks for your contributions in our Cu...GMoneyPhx, thanks for your contributions in our CubeX user group.
