sls nylon vs fdm worth the extra cost

Went with powder-sintered (SLS/) nylon for this part. It's a bit pricier, but the quality is absolutely top-notch. Zero visible layer lines compared to FDM, the surface feels great to the touch, and it just looks incredibly premium. The metal inserts fit perfectly too. Highly recommend if you need functional and professional-looking parts!
