| + | [* black] After triple checking my CAD, I went ahead and tested my design on a 3D printer. I used a Zortrax M200 3D Printer. This is an FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) printer designed to print parts out of a filament. In this case ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), was used for the print. ABS was used for its durability and ease in availability. |

| + | [* black] An SLA (Stereolithography) 3D printer is not ideal in this case because this is a thin walled part that may be exposed to extended outdoor use. UV curable resin is not very tolerant of excess external UV radiation and the material properties of the resin can [https://www.3dhubs.com/knowledge-base/sla-3d-printing-materials-compared|change] over time with additional UV light. |
