You just sent me down such a deep rabbit hole. I just brought my gen 0 dreamcast back to life and was enjoying the snake mini game from trickstyle. It might be fun to do some homebrew :nerd_face: now that it’s working again.

Yes petg it pretty robust the pulley has 112grams of filament it appears to be pretty solid. I plan to add a gear drive to the trampa wheels eventually so it’s hard to justify $100 on metal pulleys…

It will likely be fine, there is so much surface area on a pulley that large the teeth really don’t have to be that strong. But if a rock gets trapped I’m not sure which will give the belt or the pulley.

I have esun PETG kegal pushfits pulleys on my daughters board, 300km plus and they still look fine, I have seen POM pulleys melt so may be possible to melt PETG with friction. I have a few rolls of ABS waiting on me to fit my swissmicro direct drive I may reprint it in ABS once it fit the swiss.

More like a second home. I do get unlimited access which is cool. Just bumped in to the owner skating around and he immediately knew my board was diy but not in a shitty way lol. Turns out the one other local diy esk8 guy near me just started teaching a laser cutting class there. Gonna be volunteering there asap.
