9 months agoWhat issues? Brittleness?
You solved that via annealing and releasing the stress in the PLA, not by drying it.

Yeah… I’ve been printing now for 11 years…
I’ve submerged PLA in water overnight and then printed it to prove humidity has no effect on PLA.
PLA doesn’t give a shit about humidity and never has. All the early days of 3D Printing that used Nylon needed drying out.
Even early days PLA getting brittle was about strain fatigue on the filament and nothing to do with humidity. But modern day PLA these days doesn’t suffer from those old school issues anymore.
Dust will cause more issues than humidity.
