I would love to see some weights in the Makers Supply. Especially when doing prints that can’t be too big in size, but need some weight to be stable or have a more premium feel.

Personally I’m a big fan of “tire weights” that are used to balance out car tires for several reasons:

  • they’re produced in huge amounts across the world so they’ve one of the best weight / size / price ratio
  • they usually exist in only two very common sizes (5g / 10g)
  • they’re flat and often have one sticky side so they could easily be inserted into slots or mid print

They should be about 5-8x heavier than 100% PLA of the same volume.
