Re: 3D printed parts
3D printed parts are definitely allowed and can be used in interesting ways. For last year's Recycle Rush we 3D printed hooks that we put on a belt and used to lift and stack totes. They're not the most durable, but they worked fairly well provided we checked for and replaced broken ones. And as for fire hazards, I know that you're supposed to be nearby when parts are being printed just to make sure everything is going okay.
