PLA
Our go-to default. Great for the majority of parts — organizers, brackets, EDC, most gear. Prints easy on any printer. Soft above ~50°C, so step up to PETG for hot or sun-exposed parts.
Plain-language guides for what to load in your printer and which settings to start with. No 800-line settings spreadsheet. Just the picks that work for Outpost files.
