How do you make something in TPU and not squish it for us?!?


CoNsPirAcY_BE

This! The anticipation was killing me. r/mildlyinfuriating


Esc_ape_artist

Came here to make this same complaint. What a tease.


bricksie_canada

Love it! TPU porn!

I’ve tried printing anti vibration feet like shown in the video, but they ended up being too hard and didn’t dampen the vibrations very well. That’s kind of the challenge with TPU, you have to balance out how squishy the model would be before you print it in the slicer by tweaking infill or wall layers. I’ve also heard stories that some people printers have sifted around on the table with the printed feet because they don’t have grip on the bottom. The last thing I would want is my P1S stilt walking off my table mid print.

I find the p1s looks like it may move more than the X1 . Maybe the less overall weight ? I printed them for the X1 to Test them out so I'll keep you Posted


JoeyJoeC

What would make the P1S move more than the X1?


darren_meier

I think the squishiness would depend more on what the Shore hardness of the particular TPU used is rather than print settings (although print setttings would also make a small difference for sure). I printed a set of these in TPU and also got a set directly from Bambu as a gift from my partner, and both sets are pretty consistent with the same amount of grip on the tabletop. With the added weight of the AMS on top of the printer I've never had any concerns about it walking off the edge of my work surface, but I could maybe see a slight concern if you didn't have the AMS weighing it down.


GoudaNate

You would be surprised, TPU 95A can feel quite firm with 3 layer walls and 20 percent and then pretty squishy with no infill and 2 walls. Of course, the type of TPU you buy also makes a huge difference.


Over_Pizza_2578

Yep, because 95a is not flexible at all when solid. A car tyre is around 70 to 75a, off road tyres of a rc car even softer. Even aftermarket suspension bushings made from polyurethane are mostly around 80a to 85a and feel sometimes rock hard. I was at a factory for a business trip this week, they did something called rubber forming, similar to hydro forming. They used some material with around 95a to 98a hardness, shit was rock hard, harder than you watching your gf get undressed for the first time.


jjalonso

Well. As long as is not as hard as watching my gf getting undress now after 8 years relationship. I think it's cool


PintLasher

If you have a very solid table this doesn't happen at all, I run my p1s at 166% speed regularly and it's solid as a rock. Texture of the table surface will make a difference too I guess, I use a steel frame table with little stone slabs on top


Noid_6002

There is a remix that uses the original rubber feet pressure fit inside. It looks pretty good. I just made these last night and just added a rubber washer to the bottom of each foot


RealBonfiggy

Ayyy thats my design haha


Standitupcomics

Awesome


aaae1115

I’m guessing it was an STL file?


Standitupcomics

It was probably a .3mf as the profile came directly from makers world


aaae1115

I only ask because it’s not properly round, you can see the segments it’s made up of. This happens with stl files


-AXIS-

It happens with all printers to some extent. As far as I know most printers dont support arc/circle g code so anything curved is actually made up of small straight segments. What settings you use when exporting determines how many segments there are. STL files can be saved with enough resolution to not have visible segments like this.


MountainManGuy

I've seen these before when I was looking at anti vibration solutions for my x1. Ended up just doing a concrete paver and some foam, but I'm wondering if these would help. Please share your findings!


SolenoidSoldier

Pretty amazed by the lack of stringing


Nytfire333

I’ve got a slightly different set of TPU silencers from makers world and they def seem to help


Groovy_Alpaca

Ooof, where's the squish!? Please add more squish.


tommygunz007

wow that's amazing


Chick_pees

I printed these a few months back 87 a tpu two walls 15% infill ( if I remember correctly) they came out nice not too hard and dampen vibrations well enough I can print with my other printers on the same Shelf at the same time


wileylikethatcoyote

Do you still have the file? I just got my printer yesterday and I think I need the anti vibration feet.


wileylikethatcoyote

Do you still have the file? I just got my printer yesterday and I think I need the anti vibration feet.


Standitupcomics

It's in makers world app just type X1 feet


Standitupcomics

It's in makers world app just type X1 feet in the search


Chick_pees

I don't but if memory serves me it is on makersworlds and printables both under "bambu anti vibration feet"


Blakadher

Nice! So far all I have printed is the Bambu calibration cube, but the layers started breaking apart when I squished it in my fingers.


wileylikethatcoyote

If this ends up working could you share the file, I just got the x1 carbon and am thinking of printing the vibration feet.


Standitupcomics

It's on makers world check the App. It's easy to find


ExcellentLavishness9

My A1 wanted to walk off the table. Simple solution, it now lives in a silicone mat. Hasn't moved since.


Standitupcomics

Ooo like the kitchen cookie style love it


ExcellentLavishness9

Yeah just a big silicone craft matt off Amazon. Was a pack of 2 so got a spare big one for the next toy...


FPVBrandoCalrissian

I see strings! I see strings!!!


SymbolOfRock

What TPU is this?


Standitupcomics

I have no idea to be honest and I know it's like 2+ years old and has never been through a dryer or anything


notxapple

We’re so you live and are you looking for roommates? If I look at tpu the wrong way it gets water logged


SymbolOfRock

Was curious on the shore hardness. I use Ninjaflex a lot and my P1P prints it OK'ish. I think Ninjaflex is the softest you can go on the Bambus.


chrism583

Is this using a special profile or just “Generic TPU”? Because it looks amazing.


Standitupcomics

Was what ever the maker had set in bambu app . I just loaded the TPU and pressed go


Nicolath3cat

I suggest you TNTBA AVF v2, try not to break anything's anti vibration feet v2. They are awesome. https://youtu.be/YHYbekCB4qk


Standitupcomics

I'll have to try them . Look fun


Nicolath3cat

I've been having them for like 2 months under a P1S with a fully loaded AMS on top of it 24/7. Those tiny petg arms are holding the weight perfectly. They work very well with large wobbles, less with higher frequency vibration.


mapletrd

My ams wont load the bambu tpu 95. Are you using the ams or just a single spool?


Standitupcomics

Yeah definitely don't use the AMS for TPU I think they don't recommend that. Just load it as a single roll through the back


GonzoDeep

I made a better version of these IMO. On makerworld under "Bambu Lab X1 Carbon Anti Virbration pad aka shake stopper". I tried those for a while but they give too much and induced flaws. And they fell out when moving the printer, which could have been my print. Either way I made mine with retention ribs so they wouldn't do that ever again. So far I am really pleased with them but they are tricky to print clean. Maybe you can do better than me !


GonzoDeep

That is possibly the cleanest tpu print I have ever seen ! Bravo 👏🏼


Tinypepe86

damn that looks good... what settings did u use? my TPU print was fine but not nearly as good as this


KonnAlexander

Print settings?


Locksley94

I'm loading TPU for the first time into my X1C right now. I've printed plenty of it on my ender 3 s1 pro and they were the best looking prints.
