To get started, I printed the motor mast clamp, just because it seemed like something I could do.  
Following the [method used by YAHEF](https://foil.zone/t/yahef-from-norway/5682), I adapted the design to my mast and motor using fusion 360, and to make a long story short, ended up printing it in PETG with 100% fill.

**QUESTION:** has anybody used a PETG mast clamp without any additional processing (fiberglassing, epoxy filling, etc…)? I just reinforced mine with a couple of heavy duty (200lb) tie wraps around the circumference…

**EDIT** : after reading [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbSQvJJjw2Q) about improving the strength of the print, i might reprint the clamp with:

- PETG
- layer height: 0.15mm
- layer width: 0.56 mm (140% of nozzle width)
- perimeters, top and base layers: 10
- infill: 100% honeycomb (don’t know if patterns matters at that point)

Not taking any chances!
