Transparent 3D Printing?

Transparent plastic is nothing new. However, 3D prints are usually opaque or-at best-translucent. [Thomas Sanladerer] wanted to print something really transparent. He noticed that Colorfabb had an article about printing transparent pieces with their HT filament. [Thomas] wanted to try doing the same thing with standard (and cheaper) PETG, which is chemically similar to the HT.
