I'd use flex filament. But pla is fine. Just increase perimeters. I'll print it when I get back from turkeyfest


Flex filament is probably too flexy. The trouble with PLA is that it essentially starts forming cracks at zero force. If you keep PLA under load it's only a question of how long it takes before it breaks. E.g. making a coat hook from PLA would probably work fine for a long long time, but one day it will break, Even if you just hang a coat from it and never touch it again.
