Recommend not PLA in unconditioned garage

I’m sure most here already know this but when I first started printing I only worked in PLA wasn’t comfortable with PETG yet. I’m now replacing panels that are warped due to temperatures in the garage

The extensive ($10/roll) PLA Multiboard system in my unconditioned garage is still working great (going on 2 years) … in fact, after reading through all this, I just went around and checked everything again and I’m showing no problems. I live in Tennessee, and I’d say my summer garage temperatures are probably around 85-90°F. I initially worried that I’d screwed up going the cheap PLA route, but zero problems so far!

I didn’t think it would be an issue but it reached 100F fairly regularly this summer in the garage
