@WillowCreativ Oh I'm aware. I just hoped it wasn't the same, the t500 extruder assembly has some severe qc issues that causes issues above the heat trap, that pretty much destroys the hot end.
@WillowCreativ that turned out great for a first run, wonder if you could just back it with a thin foam print for support without adding much weight to it?
@WillowCreativ what if you did a full size 3d print, shrink it just, and skin it with that foaming filament? hmm...if you had a dual extruder setup, would it tolerate printing the foam tpu stuff around a solid core of pla filament?
