I know of a proprietary titanium manufacturing process which isn't cheap but is definitely capable, however I was asking from a DIY point of view which I understand isn't the best method. Depending on use/material I sometimes anneal my prints for added strength but in doing so I've never done anything in pure plastic that I would ever consider structural.
I was just curious to know if anyone had been able to pull it off. There's a thingiverse link Bojan posted showing a successful print but was it a successful component? Probably not, anyway I'm going steel (not printed), just don't know what type yet.
I managed draft a couple of rough concepts today for a new extension pillar. They both allow me to use the original adapter on top for connection to the mount.
