Thanks for checking me out. Can you click this button for free so I can buy more filament to make more models? Cheers! 

 

Hey friends, 

 

Here is a new model that isn't new to me, I have been working on it on again and off again for a little under a year!! I know, it's a simple model and it shouldn't have taken me this long, but it takes a while to print and I wanted it to be perfect! It is STRONGER - by an order of magnitude, than the fidget fabrics which use chain joints. It is also WAYYY easier to print - with a failure rate of 0 on the newest design on 5 test prints. 

 

Introducing the Fidget Fabric! A fully print in place fabric which can move just like real cloth! But with all the clicky clacky fidgeting articulating that you 3D Printers crave! 

 

Are you a 3D Printer… or is your printer a 3D Printer? What do you call someone who uses 3D Printers? 

 

(PLEASE NOTE, I AM AWARE OTHER MODELS LIKE THIS EXIST. MY FOCUS WITH THIS WAS EASE TO PRINT, ANYONE CAN PRINT THIS.)

 

Anyway - Print at a 0.2mm layer height and reduce speeds to accomodate overhangs is the only advice I have, beyond that maybe some bed adhesive and you should be golden! Enjoy!

What an awesome idea! Some quick tips would be to print some of the the ball joint connectors separately, you can use a heat gun to soften the joints just enough so that it's super easy to snap them into place and expand the fabric. You can do this without a heat gun also!

This fabric design is extremely shape conforming, especially for the size of the connected 6-point hexagons.
