Properties
quite tough and cheap material
Recommended tools
A deposition tool has to be built from a glue gun : the heater can be adapted, with a thin nozzle, and a piston will push the glue stick
As the glue is extruding into thin wires, even when pressure is released, a mechanical device may be needed to stop the flow.
the nozzle may be designed to squeeze the deposited glue, like in Stratasys old FDM machines
Safety and Toxicity
no problem, as far as i know
