STRONG AND SMOOTH! Best consumables for 3D printing

GRAY Bought at a great deal (less than $12/roll). I made a bracket for my bike's front drum brake, I'll post how it holds up. Here is the crucial information for its production. I wanted to smooth it out to reinforce the structure and eliminate the need for rough sanding.
