Description

This is a common problem where the air vent bar breaks when a phone support is used on air vent ant the bar breaks. I used 50% in fill to give it added strength and ABS to print. See picture, nail shows the bar in situ. I used 50% in fill to give it added strength and ABS to print. Probably needs brim when printing to stop one end lifting.
