Is PLA suitable for outdoor gear use in the sun?
I have a 3d printer, and right now I am only using PLA which has a relatively low melting temperature (hot car in the sun or dishwasher would be enough to warp it). I am interested in printing some gear parts like trekking pole baskets or contoured maps or scope covers, **is PLA going to warp from just being in the sun on a hot summer day?**
