Just finished my first TPU print - eviltoast

Pretty impressed how well that one turned out. Used SUNLU TPU in yellow with 200/50 degrees Celsius at 20mm/s speed on my Voxelab Aquila (upgraded PEI bed and DirectDrive, also used Filament drybox).

This filament to be exact:

Angebot: SUNLU TPU Filament, 1KG Flexibles 95A TPU 3D Drucker Filament 1.75mm Maßgenauigkeit +/- 0.03 mm, Hohe Liquidität und Elastizität, 1KG(2.2Lbs) Spule, TPU Filament für FDM 3D Drucker,TPU Gelb https://amzn.eu/d/7H5TLjr

    Thanks for the advice! Fortunately, our Fokoos comes with a direct drive, so that’s checked off already. I think our major hurdle right now will be to keep filament properly dry, as I read TPU can get quite finicky with that.

    I hadn’t thought of the printing speed yet, though - appreciate the help!
