I used to be able to say "Google doesn't say anything" or "nothing is on Google it shows you other places where information is".

Now thats out the fucking window and I'm furious. Humanity is about to get vastly fucking dumber.

To be frank, PEEK is far outside the capability of the vast majority of people. You would have to spend a ton of money building a machine for the explicit task of printing PEEK at extremely high temperatures, over 500°c, and PEEK filament is hideously expensive. Hundreds of dollars per roll.
