Emphasis mine. We use plenty of ABS plastic on our bot, and I can't imagine that printing our own rollers would hold up for the season.
One thing we considered last season was making our own mecanum wheels; a plan we had to integrate our 3D Printer into it was making a mold to make "polysomething"(I don't remember what...) rollers.
