LW-PLA wing test
I stopped the printing after 2 hours because some of the surface was messing up, but otherwise the wing section is very strong, light and shows much promise.
Andrew, when using the expanded temperature range, the surface is matte and appears sand-able. They say its also very paintable, looks likely. I've painted PLA with Tremclad flat black (!) on an optical tunnel that holds a cold mirror for the telescope, and that worked very well - educated guess is this material will paint even better.
I'm so encouraged by the LW-PLA that I'll be purchasing three reels of 1kgs this week (50$ each).
