This was my very first time trying out PETG to print something that needs to be more durable than PLA. I suggested this Honeycomb Storage Wall project to my father and we aggreed to try it out with PETG. It went much easier than excpected. A little bit of stringing here and there, but the final result was good and worth it. Now we are thinking of printing another one for the garage wall as well :D I used CR-PETG for the red parts. Green one is from 3dk.berlin. After i ran out of both I started to use SUNLU PLA+ red (Yes, the one i got from the giveaway :D), PLA+ still does the job, altough it feels a little bit weaker than PETG. I took most of the models from Printables. Some i modified, some i made myself (i didn't publish all of them yet): Honeycomb storage wall Parametric HSW Hook Parametric HSW Multipurpose Holder for plier cutter and other tools Parametric HSW Multipurpose Holder for Screwdriver and other Cylindrical tools 100x70x100 Container with HSW Adapter Swivel Trays for Honeycomb Storage Wall (HSW) Battery holder for AA+AAA, honeycomb storage wall (HSW) HSW Multi-purpose Holder Hex Allen key holder for Honeycomb storage Smaller Screwdriver holders HSW M3 Insert - Heatset Insert For Mounting. HSW Wowstick Holder Screw driver holder (all-in-one) Multiboard/HSW tape measure mount (for any tool with a belt clip) HSW IR Pyrometer / Infrared Thermometer holder for Honeycomb Storage Wall HSW Hook Honey Comb Wall remixes and introducing my Screw Wall!!! HSW Caliper and CR2032 Holder HSW Vise Grip Wire Stripper Hanger Pliers Holder HSW HSW Hammer holder Hex Bit Holder (Honeycomb storage wall Compatible) HSW Tiny Bit Holder 36 holes Screwdriver Holder I can recommend this project for anyone who wants some modular storage on the wall. The base project has over 3000+ remixes and still counting. Also it is not just for tools, it can hold anything you can imagine, Just find/make the right model for it :D. I hope this post inspires someone to give this project and PETG a try :)

Hi! Thank you, thats very kind of you! I would absolutely love some PETG instead of PLA! I got way too many PLA at home now :D (30+ kg). Also after I finished the project I redeemed my points from bambulab for some PETG. Unluckily they just announced 1-2 days later, that they are renewing their PETG Basic with more colors and additives (They pulled the rug on their PETG-HF project). As for request i don't know if SUNLU has them on stock, but bambulab didn't have any orange/green available at the time. So maybe one of those colors? But it's perfectly fine if they send some random filament they have at the ready :) Thank you for the giveaway!

I recently visited TCT 3Sixty in Birmingham, UK, where I noticed new flexible materials becoming available from consumer filament brands. One example was PEBA by eSUN, shown here as a 3D printed bicycle handle grip. It had a very nice, soft feel. The Adidas 4D shoes displayed at the Carbon stand also had a pleasant, velvety texture. I know these shoes can be expensive. Even printing your own pair on an FDM 3D printer can quickly add up once you factor in quality TPU, failed prints, machine costs, and the time required to get good results. However, this area is moving rapidly, and the collection of free, high-quality shoe designs available for FDM 3D printing continues to grow. Another area of interest for me is scanning our own feet to make them more comfortable. If all goes well, I may try some scanners soon. This one is VivoBiom by VivoBareFoot.

Awesome guide. Very thorough project. This kind of stuff is worth publishing as an article on the main website. I could ask SUNLU to send you 2 spools of PETG this time instead of PLA. Do you have specific requests? (Sorry for waiting patiently until the end of the month.)

Congratulations! 🎉 This post won 1 filament spool in the Contribute to Win - May 2026 giveaway. We will contact you shortly to arrange the delivery of the SUNLU filament spool. Giveaway Rules: https://3dwithus.com/forum/topic/973-contribute-to-win-monthly-giveaway
