Why I’m Moving My 3D Printing Business to PETG
In this video, I explain the three biggest reasons I’m transitioning my 3D printed wall plates from PCTG to PETG filament. Running a small 3D printing business has taught me that material costs, support removal, sourcing availability, shipping costs, and advertising expenses all directly impact profitability. I compare PCTG vs PETG, discuss the differences in strength, appearance, support removal, and pricing, and share real-world examples from my Tecton Nook™ wall plate product line. If you’re starting a 3D printing business, selling on Etsy, or trying to decide between PETG, PCTG, PLA, or ABS for your products, this video may help you make a more informed decision. Check out my Tecton Creations wall plates and modular accessories below, and let me know in the comments what filament you’re using for your products. 🔔 Subscribe for more 3D printing business, product development, Etsy, Shopify, and maker content. 🛒 Tecton Creations Store: https://tectoncreations.com #3dprinting #petg #pctg #filament #3dprinter #bambulab #makerbusiness #etsyshop #ecommerce #smallbusiness #productdesign #3dprinted #tectoncreations #wallplates #3dprintingbusiness #petgfilament #pctgfilament #shopify #makersgonnamake #entrepreneurship
