Review on 🔧 Versatile and Durable Flexible Black Filament 1.75 Material for All Your 3D Printing Needs by Robert Howell

So where do I start. I ordered this filament last week after seeing a notice on the Tronxy 3D printer Facebook group asking users to test and review their TPU filament. I'm new to 3D printing but always willing to try new things, especially when it allows me to create flexible prints. Since my printer model is not technically TPU compatible, I consulted tronxy customer service to see if I could do it. Thanks to Lisa for helping me a lot and setting up some basic temperature and speed settings for me to use to run TPU on the XY-3 printer. (If this is any indication of Tronxy's customer service in general, I'd say they're very polite and helpful. Kudos!) Now, to test this out and do the first print, I decided on a bracelet design that I'd come up with thingiverse had found. .com to print a copy for my wife and daughter. I made three attempts to print the first bracelet, but the first two had trouble sticking to the print bed. (Honestly I have the same issue with PLA and WOOD filament and it takes me a few tries to get my settings right so it wasn't a deal breaker.) The third time was a charm and I managed, quite a bit beautiful to produce bracelet - bracelet. The most interesting thing now is the supports. The bracelet was hollow and quite open, so it had a lot of support structures. I also had some issues with the nozzle sometimes leaving threads as it went from section to section, but I changed the retract setting to get this under control. However, once the print was complete, I had to clean up a bit. Just a note: flex prints are just as stretchy, including the support frames! Don't worry, they can still be cut fairly easily with a sharp utility knife. When my bracelets were ready I decided to make a third test print, a stand. At this point I have nice, even lines (with only the occasional clump) and was able to print a nice, clean circle onto the print bed (btw, I also decided to improve adhesion with some glue sticking to the print surface. Which works really well .) I found TPU filament worked even better for this as I got a nice flat circle that stuck well to my desk surface during use. Of course, I had to bend the coaster a few times just because I could, and I found its flexibility to be indistinguishable from the rubber coaster I bought a few years ago. All in all I would definitely recommend this thread to other users. I found it easy to work with and type smoothly. I am confident that I can achieve even better results as I continue to practice with my printer and become familiar with its full range of features and capabilities.
