This is why posting a screen shot or 3MF is needed.     The 0.3 could be
anything.      When I make something I keep the .STL, the .gcode and
the .3mf files together in one place "forever" so that if I want to re-make
the part I just load the 3mf file and all the settings are restored.

I am thinking of a system where I write a serial number on the part so I
can find its 3MF file later.    My point is that the 3mf keeps your work
and remembers what you did for you.  Now to find a white ink Sharpie.

On the positive side, I just discovered that I can get a near-perfect
surface finish on PLA using a lathe.  I used a brazed-on carbide boring bar
to clean the inside of a PLA pulley.  I took a 0.005 cut at very low rpm
(to avoid melting the plastic) and got a smooth inside that is a light
press fit to the 24mm steel hub.    I think I will try red (permanent)
Locktight and see how it holds up.
