Another Attempt at PLA part on PLA raft

     A second attempt to fabricate PLA parts on a PLA raft with PLA supports was made.  The Wheel-Axle Kit was used with revised axle diameter and axle hole diameter.  The ensemble is shown at left after build.  The raft was made thicker in order to obtain a better release as was experienced with the axle part on the previous build.

    After the build an attempt was made to remove the raft and supports using finger and later pliers pressure.  As for the previous build, the axle was removed relatively easy while the raft under the wheels was again attached very strongly making removal essentially impossible.  A short effort was made using a Dremel tool and cutter tool to remove the white PLA material.  It of course is ground away, but only slowly and with very little control.  It would likely require a tool more precise such as a milling machine to remove the raft material.  This build method is impractical for large flat parts like the wheels.
