No problem.

I need to overhaul my belts. I printed out this Ikea Lack Switchboard...

found on #Thingiverse https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3329766

And the holes for the buttons were a bit too ovally for my tastes.

Anyone here use belt tensioners like this?

I use one similar but it doesn't have the printed threads - just uses a nut and screw for that part.  I did add a zip tie around the outer part as it seemed to want to spread under load.  It's been working fine.

Cool, thanks for the feedback

I got my amazon basics pet-g in.
First attempt was a carabeaner.
235c nozzel and 85C bed.
A stringy mess but it printed.

I adjusted nozzel temp up to 238c and played around with wall thickness and layer height plus resolution and some other settings I don't fully understand yet. LOL!

and i only saw a little stringing at the beginning and heard the extruder clicking so I raised the Z height a tiny bit while printing (an option with my printer) and I think it looks good.
I choose to make this to test things are solid and because I have a puck light and I think it looks cool.

Will report back on how the filament performed in a day or two when it's done printing.
