[QUOTE="blert, post: 1049806, member: 64702"] Nah, it's not the heat from the LED that will be the problem, though it will contribute. The general heat soak of a spring day will cause PLA to warp and deform. Then, as summer creeps in, the PLA will likely totally fail, esspecially considering how thin-walled the holder will be. If you can't print ABS then try PETG, easy as PLA to print but with better heat handling. Reinforced nylon is pretty easy to print also but you need a hardened nozzle as the carbon, or glass, in the nylon will destroy a regular nozzle. [/QUOTE]
