The rifle configuration parts were printed on a Bambu Labs P1P, but the pistol/original parts (not pictured) were printed on an Ender 3. The pistol/ender printed parts had some minor warping issues, but it didn’t seem to affect the gun’s performance. The warping was only on the external edges, so it only affected aesthetics.
When my ender was my main printer, I had less success printing with PETG (sticking to nozzle instead of bed, more warping, sticking too well to painters tape and integrating the tape with the print). Try putting an enclosure over the printer or putting it in a small room, the ambient temperature increase should lower the chance of warping. I’ve found that cleaning the bed while it’s hot with alcohol works a bit better than when its cold.
PETG is a great filament if you can get it working, my only complaint is that the printer needs to be tuned more precisely than with PLA (bed level that works for PLA might not work for PETG).
