These were case fillers for a 42cc Poulan clamshell - they lasted a few tanks, but got soft and got into the crank eventually.  That was on a 96deg day though.

Next level has begun.   :o

So anyone stepped up to try parts making with metal 3D printers yet? 

I wonder how well these new metal 3D printers going to do for guys making NLA parts or custom parts, etc.
