25 Common Vegetable Stake Labels Size 135mm X 10mm X 1.2mm LAST layer prints the letters so use a different colour filament on that layer if you wish. The biggest challenge for these as they will be outdoors will be the heat of the sun. PLA will melt, bend, twist with sufficient heat. I printed these using PLA and tested them out in my garden. They have worked for me so far in the hot subtropical sun of Brisbane Australia with only a few bending significantly because of the heat. But your local conditions will be different. So the key points if you are going to make and use these. Try placing them in the most shady spot.Stick them in as deeply as you can (without covering the letters) and vertically (rather then at an angle) into the soil.Increase the thickness in your slicer to 1.6, 1.8, 2.0mm or higher which should reduce any bending.Finally try using PETG filament which is more resistant to the sun and heat.REMEMBER If you use PLA and they do bend in the sun you can always bend them back by applying a little bit of heat. You might also not mind if they go a bit twisted, I personally don't mind at all.
