Little 3D printed Golem in color of choice. These golems are just under 2 inches tall and printed out of PLA plastic. (See below for details on PLA)Arms and legs move, head spins a full 360 degrees. Print design by: Layers in Green. Authorized seller. What is PLA? Polylactic acid (PLA) filament is a thermoplastic polyester made from renewable resources like corn starch or sugarcane. It's a common material used in 3D printing. Properties: Biodegradable: PLA can be broken down in composting plants or under certain conditions with high heat Recyclable: PLA can be melted and reused without significant damage Non-toxic: PLA doesn't emit toxins or fumes when melted Low shrinkage: PLA doesn't deform after cooling, making it ideal for 3D printing Low melting point: PLA has a melting point between 80 and 150 °C (176 - 302°F) Good layer adhesion: PLA has excellent layer adhesion, making it good for creating intricate designs Uses: 3D printing: PLA is a popular choice for 3D printing because of its low melting point, minimal warping, and excellent layer adhesion Rapid prototyping: PLA is ideal for fast prototyping because it's easy to print with Artistic designs: PLA is good for creating intricate artistic designs because of its print quality and dimensional accuracy Production: PLA is made by breaking down the starch in plants like corn or beets into lactic acid PLA is the second most produced bioplastic
