@A. Wells posted:@sidehack - For the Bottling Works Sign, did you use filament for the blue or paint the blue? Anthony
At that time I was using grey PLA , but now I pretty much only use PETG grey or black "Solutech" which I have had great luck with.
The sign was all painted by me.

So right, whenever I see a need or a problem now my brain automatically says "can I 3D print something to help or did someone already do that"
For instance we use those plastic bags with handles in a small kitchen basket which makes it easy to tie it up and get rid of but how do you keep a bag like this held up?
Made a couple of brackets for each side to hold it up open and no more problem.
Had a handle break on a nice can opener, no problem made another and this one will never break.
I know this isn't trains but definitely relevant to the discussion.
