I've used PLA 870 filament and applied a heat treatment to increase the strength and make it withstand the bumps of a child.
It's been printed in PLA 870 and applied thermal curing in order to make it stronger, as it has been printed for a 4yo kid.
*Oven process - Oven process
These are the main points to be able to use our oven of
house.
Let's remember that, unless it is a very high quality oven, traditional ovens have
a temperature variation of between 20 and 40 degrees during the on and off phases, so that
ALWAYS use the lowest temperature available to you because it is the most stable one
(50-60 degrees Celsius)
NEVER use the ventilation system (or convection oven), ALWAYS use the oven.

We will put the piece with the printer glass in the oven off and we will allow the oven to
warm up. We will start counting the minutes as soon as the oven has reached the
desired temperature.
Once the tempering time has elapsed, allow the piece to cool for a few minutes.

Once cold, we can separate the supports and the piece from the glass base.

Water method
Water process
The water method is usually the easiest and safest method since we have better control of the
tempering temperature.
We will fill our container with water and carefully measure the temperature.
In this case we will use a household thermometer to measure the water temperature.
around 70 degrees.
We proceed to immerse the piece with the glass base in our container, paying attention to
that the workpiece is completely submerged (if the workpiece has a very low percentage of filler,
will tend to float. For this reason, we will use some weights to make our project stay on the bottom
of the container, being careful that the weights don't touch the part).
Wait until the water is cold (less than 20 degrees) and proceed to separate the supports
and the piece of the glass base.
