Making a part stronger.

[kindai]

Howdy all.

I have a 3d printed mini part that is quite long and delicate, think about the thickness of a toothpick and double the lenth of one also.

Now even while handling it to work on some of the detailing, it has warped/bent. So does anyone know the best option to strenghten it, even if it makes it more brittle? Or is it a matter of, getting it re-printed in a different material?

Don’t think you will improve much with FDM printing as that is quite a thin part. The usual go to of increase walls/perimeters and print in correct orientation probably won’t make a difference.

Think a resin print would be best people who print miniatures usually recommend it.

an abs like resin might work, most standard resins would just snap
