This time, the bad print isn't mine

I got new printed parts for the extruder from electronic-things.de, though I am not exactly impressed with the print quality. The hole for the hotend and for the hobbed bolt are both rather stringy and will need some bits removed to work, let alone work in the long run:



The holes for various screws aren't all great, either. Disappointing. I'm inclined to send them back.
