Neat. What plastics lack in absorbancy, this might make up for by having wells where condensation could drain into. Could also prove a veritable mold farm I suppose. Might try this with tpu as mesh layer to reduce slipperiness.

That is why I regularly disassemble mine and toss them in the dishwasher to prevent mold and to clean them from dust and drinks.

toss them in the dishwasher

Does your dishwasher have a cold wash setting or did you print these in ABS or something?

It has a 60°C short program. Fiberlogy PETG doesn't warp at those temps.

Gotcha. I'm not sure I've ever had a dishwasher with that functionality.
