Anyone who raises an eyebrow at paying $85 for a Deep Rock Galactic mug must know they are 'the most complicated mug made industrially on Earth'

Plastic? At this price, wouldn't ceramic be on par?I assume so you can throw them just like in the game

I assume so you can throw them just like in the gameWhich is awesome, but then it shouldn't cost this much. Unless if it's made of some of the actually ultra high performance plastics, like maybe polycarbonate or carbon fiber reenforced PA-6/PPA for example, but I highly doubt that's the case

This post did not contain any content.I get them, niche shit is going to be expensive when you make them this way (high quality molds)

You'd want a non-filled material or at least less stiff filler. Something like aramid (kevlar) would give you good properties across the board for an application like this though.

Food safe, microwave safe, etc. But still plastic.

Its a plastic mug lmaoThey don't even really look that good. A 3d printer could probably have similar output in an afternoon for less than 10 bucks of filament

> carbon fiber reenforced Great for strength, bad for impact resistance. You'd want a non-filled material or at least less stiff filler. Something like aramid (kevlar) would give you good properties across the board for an application like this though.I have machined a lot, and I mean a *lot* of aramid filled materials of different kinds in a lot of situations. There is no way, under any circumstances I am letting that stuff near a drinking vessel I actively use, even if it is properly sealed. That shit is like hell on earth to be exposed to.

This post did not contain any content.For almost a hundred bucks, I expect this to be high quality and made ceramic or double walled vacuum sealed stainless steel. This looks worse than what some higher end 3d printers can do in a few hours.

I would not recommend drinking out of anything 3d printed.I don't know if Id recommend drinking out of that cheap plastic one either.

I would not recommend drinking out of anything 3d printed.You would probably put a metal insert into it.

Something like aramid (kevlar) would give you good properties across the board for an application like this though.Carbon fiber can't handle impact? Nonsense! I've got a Stockton Rush paper right here proving otherwise! He even built a whole submersible to go down to the titanic. Next thing you say it won't handle pressure cycling either? Poppycock! (/s obviously)

This post did not contain any content.There's a lot of armchair experts on manufacturing here. No it can't be 3D printed, that will never beat injection molding in this use case. You must be living on the moon if you think this can be made from ceramic/steel for $50. Sorry but yall haven't got a clue

I would not recommend drinking out of anything 3d printed.They don't look made for using.
