Hi y'all!

I've been wanting to have a go at tpu-gf. I mostly print mechanical parts, so reinforced tpu with its stellar layer adhesion seems very intriguing! Does anyone here have any experience with printing Glassfibre-filled TPU? How did it go?

Also, are there any shops selling it within the EU?

Greetings, Waffle :)

Edit 1: First print went well! Got an amazon spool from "Tinmorry" (a brand i've never used before). Glue stick is a must, and i'd recommend some 110%-130% nozzle size extrusion line width (maybe even more). I used a 0.6mm steel nozzle.

Isopropyl alcohol. a little dab under the print will help it come loose.

Though it is best to use a release agent with TPU, like a glue stick.
