Another reason to figure out how to print TPU! I just got a bro deck from Apex’s sale and these will work perfectly.
I’m debating just getting another ender and converting to direct drive just for printing tpu things.

tpu is great, I have a couple ender 3’s and they all have direct drive mods on them and prints TPU perfectly.

All my TPU parts are printed on a creality Cr-10s with a Bowden tube setup. I’ve done a bunch of mods, but still, direct drive isn’t necessarily required.
Capricorn tubing, better extruder gears, all metal hotend, that’s about it. And the site you recommended to dial in the TPU settings. Not bad at all
I love love love having the motors wires run under foot rather than on top - highly recommended. Still working on adding frit, but i have confidence

This would be most excellent for snow, wet conditions!!!
If you made them thicker you could add studs. It’s a serious problem when riding in snowy condition, you loose all the grip on the grip tape.
Absolutely brilliant. Well done @sleepless !

Oh shit, that’s an idea… i much prefer a mechanical system then playing with adhesives. I might have to try this

Bowden tubes work to a point with TPU, but the super soft TPU is not going to come out very well. I’m talking super stretchy TPU
These are a slam dunk dude. These might finally be the reason for me to buy a roll of tpu

I run my ender 3 very nearly stock and have had no problems printing 96A TPU with it, just printed a bit slower. Only mod was a small PETG (but ABS would be fine too, I think that’s what you said you print) plate that sits on the extruder and guides the filament into the Bowden more cleanly. It’s a 5 minute install

@3DServisas if you find this useful you can include this on your web page for your customers to print as I saw that you have a generic riser for download there.

I was using petg now I have this made out of aluminium.
But all my printed risers are petg.

About 100euros for a pair. But the guy is a wizard… It is a top notch quality and look. Apple would put those if they were to make eskate
