Description

My kids love infinity cubes - but are not allowed to use figet toys in school that make sound, so I designed this - printed as one piece in TPU its slient and squishy!

I love how it moves, and squishes - but I wanted a version that makes some sound - so I added a plate in the profile with a pause, just before the top goes on that you can use to put something in each of the cells - a perfect way to reuse some “poop” you have lying around!

This is definitely designed for TPU only. It will work with PLA - but only for a short while!

There are 3 plates in the profile. 1) is 5% infill - easiest to print. 2) has a pause to place poop or other things in before it closes up. 3) is hollow with no pause - this gives the squishiest version. The top will look rubbish while its printing on the hollow versions, but should be fine by the time it finishes - at least it is with my filaments!

Do use the provided profile as its very much been optimised for this. However if you are unable to important settings are 0.1mm layer height, 1 wall, Arachne wall generator, outerwall 0.6mm.

I LOVE IT SO MUCH! Fourth or fifth ever TPU print and first on a holo plate. I'll be fidgeting with this a loooot watching TV to avoid my husband's ire at my other fidgets clacking.

Cool model, 0% infill is squishy but not as strong, the bottom ripped taking it off the build plate (but I probably should have been more patient haha)

@taylormadearmy

have you dried that filament recently? this model prints FAR BETTER with reality dry TPU. Dry on the left. Right was before drying and this was a new spool straight out the vacuum pack...

(Edited)

@luket

it was a new spool straight out of the pack, but I think I might have accidentally used the generic tpu profile rather than the settings for overture tpu, ill try print again with different settings :)

Replying to @luket :

you also have to dry it for several hours usually before use- depending on what brand

feels pretty cool

@taylormadearmy

pleased you like it! looks like your TPU might have a bit of moisture in it. If you dry it then the print will come out even cleaner.

Nice model. I’m using Sunlu TPU and the print on the left with the fill was my attempt to match their specifications. The print that is empty on the right actually came out nicer and I just used the Bambu TPU profile. I’m learning. Thank you for this fun toy.
