I print on a machined garolite plate. The garolite is exactly the size of the modular glass plate including thickness. It is a direct replacement for the glass plate. I use it for my nylon prints and I use magigoo PA or some PVA stick. I think it may be better for other materials that don’t work with glass very well. (PETG destroyed my last glass plate…) Or perhaps I am just saving my glass for my PLA prints…
Some of you new Lulzbot guys in Fargo might consider this a product idea. I would love to buy them than hire a machine shop to make them for me.
