How to Add a Logo to a Retro Beer Crate Why PETG is the Right Choice for a Beer Crate, and PLA is a Poor Choice: PLA is unsuitable for beer crates because: It becomes brittle and fragile when frozen in a garage or car during winter It softens and loses its shape at temperatures above 60°C (a warm car in summer) It easily cracks upon impact or if the crate is dropped due to the material's brittleness It degrades from moisture from cold cans and bottles via condensation It deforms over time under the weight of beer bottles (creep) It is sensitive to UV light from the sun PETG is the right choice because: It retains its properties from freezing temperatures to 80°C It is impact-resistant and can withstand shocks and drops It bends instead of breaking under overload It is resistant to moisture and condensation It exhibits minimal creep under constant load It is UV-resistant It is "food safe" (same material as soda bottles) In short: PETG provides a durable beer crate usable year-round in various climates, while a PLA crate will likely break within a short time License: This user content is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike I have created a Facebook group where I upload new free prints 3D Print Danmark - Vis, del, sælg, køb | Facebook Boost Me Send me a private message here
