[I put down the title and then did nothing.  :)  I suspect the other adjacent draft about printing with PLA was related to the need to re-re-re-build my extruder.  The way extruders were built back then didn’t involve careful machining of custom nozzles and shaped channels for the plastic to flow.  Instead, the PTFE tube went into the extruder and you kinda hoped for the best.  If you had heat creep, didn’t cool down properly, etc, you had to disassemble everything and rebuild it all.  But, such was the course of the hobbyist 3D printer enthusiast in the winter of 2010!]
