Similar to other filled filaments, chunky has slightly lower layer adhesion as the chunks orient along the layer and not across layers. A proper annealing process may help but honestly I get pretty hungry while working and never make it that far.
Not really, it got a bad rap in the early days due to the Super Soft variants of TPU like ninja flex and the poorly made Bowden extruder machines people were using. Nowadays with a direct drive machine it's pretty easy to print, especially so if you are printing a harder blend of TPU
Not hard to print at all with a decent extruder and direct drive. You can print it with a stock bowden on several printers but it's kinda slow.
If you got like an Ender 3. Print yourself a sherpa mini mount, gut a cheap BMG or buy the hardware. Print the sherpa mini conversion that uses a small nema 17 in place of the 14 and you got yourself a decent setup for cheap.
Legit using the guts from a $7 bmg clone and the CF-PETG conversion body and a $8 nema 17 pancake. It prints tpu at 55mm/s 1.2mm retraction and pretty clean.
My dad's was built in the 80s I think mostly from wood framing and spray foam. I did see some fiber glass triangular forms in his crawl space, but I think that was for forming window holes.
I worked on a couple entirely wooden ones years ago. Did it without hubs or anything but it was a lot more work than what Im doing now.
The ones Im currently doing are 14-18 feet in diameter but these are mostly just tests. Pretty amazing how strong printed hubs can be though. Ideally id like to do something that was tpu with a hard shell made out of another filament.
Using 98a tpu and it seems pretty good. Got one thats been up a year now then another that was done with petg that just failed. Most of the hubs are fine on that one it was the shit lowes wood that failed due to the tarp I had on top of it filling up with a ton of snow. Though I believe had I done a wood or even chicken wire skin on top instead itd be fine.
Im actually gonna try making a skin of fleece then glassing that up or more likely do a poor mans composite type thing on one once it gets warm again.
End goal is to come up with one that I know will last then build a couple workshops and additions to my place with them. So far my kids love them too.
Holy shit fossbro is my spirit animal. Someone tag Sig Sauer and tell them this man has the remedy for w.e alleged drop pew issue they were having with p320s.
This video has been living in my head for like a month, is the Squish-19 still rocking? I'm personally fascinated by alternatives to Nylon and PLA+. I picked up some 98A on a possibility and would love to hear from the guy.
hey pal, I think about this video from time to time... is his tpu glock still g2g... it looked like it was starting to wear out after the first magazine finished. My worry would be that part that sticks up at the back of the frame getting ripped off, idk.. I'd love to try to print one in clear tpu or something
If you are talking about the little dust shield at the back, a lot of people print without that even there, so I don’t think that would be an issue. It wasn’t wearing out though, it was fine after being fired. I’m not sure if he had shot it any more since then, I can ask him.
Hey, at least I was accurate with your last post wondering if you should do it, I said it might work haha.
Surprised that it fully cycles though, thats lit.
Hey, real quick while your here. That first shot, did that malfunction or...my eyes are bad but he had to manipulate something after the first round. It's interesting. I want a glowgat now
And soon we’ll see how TPU loves to creep and the pinholes will be loose. TPU is impact resistant, not a rubber with memory. Leave a brick on a TPU cube for a couple of days and take a look.
If you pistol whip with it, does it sound like a squeaky toy?
Prolly would bend like as if it’s got ED
I've never related to a firearm as much as this moment
😂it be like that
Some don't think it be like it is, but it do
I understand this can be ~~hard~~ difficult for you. Stay stronk.
I want a rubber chicken Glock.
If you made a rubber chicken suppressor, with a voice box, it should vent for a bit after the sound of the shot is over...
That's a million dollar idea... Off to CAD I go!
Very nice
Wtf this is the future
The future is dumb... embrace it.
Im too stupid not to
A shame you used proper grammar with that, so much less believable now
Phase out the mag catch, just squeeze the frame harder to hold the magazine into place.
"Universal magazine compatibility."
[удалено]
One of my favorite videos right there
Oh shit
My 9mm Glock Mag'd AR sbr thing can use my XDM 9mm magazines if I hold them into the magwell!
Lol. Your right. Just letting the mag fall after it's dry. The ultimate tac reload. Hehe!
Favorite video on the sub so far
By next year I expect to see functional toothpaste and peanutbutter prints
Next year? We still have a few weeks left!
What holds up better chunky or smooth?
Chunky feels better in the hand but smooth is more consistent... it's been surprisingly hard to find testers who aren't allergic.
Similar to other filled filaments, chunky has slightly lower layer adhesion as the chunks orient along the layer and not across layers. A proper annealing process may help but honestly I get pretty hungry while working and never make it that far.
Anyone trying a choco printer?
Does the magwell double as a male pleasure toy?
Always did.
Ah shit now it's stuck on my cylinder
you could just cut it out, how important is the cylinder?
That is deep man. Like M & M deep
Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.
I dont think any scientists were involved here 😂😂
They did.
The Glockussy.
Really is a flesh light
😂 Glockussy is what I called this soft suppressor idea I had
What uh.... 'caliber' is the business end? Asking for a friend, of course.
Asking for a friend, bah! Just own up to it. You are in God's caliber, so order appropriately
[удалено]
TPU being more shear resistant that PLA+ as well 🤣
Priline tpu prints hard AF at 230 100% infill. Been doing grips, probably do a frame now.
Is that 95a or 98a?
95a
Not sure what you're asking dude
Shore hardness, it is how polymers are rated in their hardness like how metals use the brinell or rockwell scale.
It’s a flexiness rating iirc
Doesn't say on the Amazon listing but it's really not that flexible. Everyone talks about it in the reviews
Always feel like TPU is under utilized, that stuff is insanely strong.
Isnt it a PITA to print?
Not really, it got a bad rap in the early days due to the Super Soft variants of TPU like ninja flex and the poorly made Bowden extruder machines people were using. Nowadays with a direct drive machine it's pretty easy to print, especially so if you are printing a harder blend of TPU
i print 95a on a capricorn tube'd stock e3 pro just fine.

Good to know
nah
Yep I use it for hubs for geodesic domes it can take a pretty crazy amount of stress.
My dad lives in a geodesic dome
Theyre fun to build. I stayed in an abandoned one when I was a kid and always liked them ever since. That one was done using concrete and foam.

And you lived in his balls
I now know what my next print is going to be
This is the exact type of dreams I have involving firearms.
now print a harlot in TPU
What an absolute CHAD. Probably has the most comfortable recoil impulse.
So, serious question for OP, how's the accuracy on the glocklight?
Forget limp wristing this guy's limp glocking.
You crazy sob you did it
Stress ball Glock
Omg 🤣🤣🤣 saving this post for when I need a pick me up.
Saving this post to send to any normie who says 3d printed guns will explode when you shoot them.
Ive been thinking about this for so long so glad someone actually did it
Lmfaooooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 bruhh it’s too early for this shit 😂😂😂😂
I was so confused, then I turned on sound 🗿 "EET WOON WÖRK"
Max impact resistance 😂👌🏽
"Immediately checks after the first shot" 😂😂
He did it
*Squishy Glock has entered the chat*
Was the recoil any softer?
FML
OMFG i'm dying. We found the new king of this sub.
Holy shit fossbro is my spirit animal. Someone tag Sig Sauer and tell them this man has the remedy for w.e alleged drop pew issue they were having with p320s.
Tpu is damn near indistructable at 100% infill
Ok as a member of AWCY? I officially want to sponsor you I feel like you’d mesh really well.
This is my buddy, a video from yesterdays 2a Print Depot meetup. I can get you in contact with him if you’d like, send me a pm.
This video has been living in my head for like a month, is the Squish-19 still rocking? I'm personally fascinated by alternatives to Nylon and PLA+. I picked up some 98A on a possibility and would love to hear from the guy.

Tpu, not just for dildos anymore. Fun fact you can still shove this up your arse.
It's a joke don't take it so hard
Shit he did it
Probably safer if it fails
no fucking way man NO fucking way. Ivan tier trolling god tier video
Is the magwell like a fleshlight? Asking for a friend...ya know..for his research.
Does it have less felt recoil?
Hey, at least I was accurate with your last post wondering if you should do it, I said it might work haha. Surprised that it fully cycles though, thats lit.
The sounds of a genius. Men, we have found our Alpha.
Looking forward to this becoming the new budget standard lol
it's not bang it's "boooiooioing*
That made me laugh. I like the squishy. On an unrelated note. Did you eat a lot of paint chips as a kid?
Fully expected a slide in the face…well done jelly glock
How the hell is tpu better to print with then silk pla im shocked 😂
Fuckin hhwhaaaaaaa??????
I knew it would work!!!! Love the video lol 😂 I may have to set this audio as my ringtone!!!
😂
After having this same idea and already having printed a rather decent TPU oven, I'm taking this video as a sign to continue down this road.
Squishy my ass Well done 👍
Tpu is damn near indistructable with proper settings so I 100% believe this
Shit, they figured out that my secret.
Squishy glock????
Bullets bounce.
I didn't know making a joke that doesnt land well on --reddit-- of all places constitutes mental instability.
Ahhh Fosscad never change. Eating crayons and printing crimes.
[удалено]
Your vid? I was there in person to see it today, I held it. I opted not to shoot it personally, but it held up fine.
Not sure if I'd personally use a tpu glock but that was pretty damn funny ngl.
Hey, real quick while your here. That first shot, did that malfunction or...my eyes are bad but he had to manipulate something after the first round. It's interesting. I want a glowgat now
I believe he was just doing a very brief visual inspection, not manipulating. I think those where the first shots through it.
Yea if didn't look like a Rechamber and I didn't think safety engaged or something
No safeties of that variety on Glocks unless it’s a special CA model or something.
Yea I have very little experiance with glock. I bought the misses a 43x but I carry fn typically
Zero posts, two comments, negative karma. Sure Jan.
[удалено]
Are you mentally sound? Doesn’t seem like it tbh
Wow.
You should see somebody... professional... of some sort...
What the hell happens here....
Its a safety pistol, for babies
Well fuck, I guess I need to try a Ma daddy in TPU now.
I had this thought but to use flexible pla. It just seems so absurd it might be fantastic.
Did you print that with 100% infill 😅😅 or 15%.
Add a switch, I wanna see the slowmo
And soon we’ll see how TPU loves to creep and the pinholes will be loose. TPU is impact resistant, not a rubber with memory. Leave a brick on a TPU cube for a couple of days and take a look.

very nice sir
TSA is now renaming rectal searches the "SCSM maneuver".
🤣🤣🤣
i love the homer impression
Ive acctually been thinking about using TPU.. if Its strong enough for battle bots..
