RECOVERED CONVERSATION EXCERPTS
USER MESSAGES:
1. Do you see any issues with printing that size of bushing

ASSISTANT RESPONSES:
1. For ID .7495 / OD .8661 / 1" long / PETG, yeah — totally printable, but this is right in the zone where tolerance and orientation matter more than strength. Biggest likely issues: 1. Inner diameter accuracy (.7495") That’s your main problem area. - FDM printers usually make holes print undersized - On a 0.4 nozzle, your .7495" ID (~19.04mm) could easily come out 0.010–0.020" tight - If this needs to slide on a 3/4" shaft, it may need: - ID modeled slightly oversized (+0.005 to +0.015") - OR drill/sand after printing 2. Wall thickness Your wall thickness is: (.8661 - .7495) / 2 = 0.0583" wall (~1.48mm) That’s printable, but thin. With a 0.4 nozzle: - ~3 perimeters = ideal - 2 perimeters = workable but weaker -…
