I was given "lubricated" Pink 3D printing filament. So I printed a Nut & Bolt to test it. It really is slippery, allowing smoother , non friction with turning parts. What should I print next?

I did too, after waiting years I found a Kit and got into it. Theses are smallish in the Nixie word. These are IN 12 tubes. ~ 1 inch high. IN 18 are closer to 2 inches. But the Big daddies are 3 inches and so beautiful. The 3 inch ones are just out of my price range and eintirely too hard to get - a single known good tube went for $1300 on E-bay a few years back. I call it Nixie fever. It can lead to the Tech just after it VFDs. I was hooked on making clocks by a VFD kit shown in the movie called All That Jazz. I said someday, about 3 years ago I made a nice VFD called the Ice Clock Kit. Let me know if you have any questions Minimum clocks run ~$100 just for the workings, then you need to make a case and things can go up form there. A typical project will get to $300 - $500 fast.
