    3D printed gaskets return - results after one year.



    Thank you to all those that commented last time. This is the results of using the 3D printed TPU gaskets in a real world situation after a year.
    All the beat!

    I am sorry for your loss.
    That said, great explorations, thank you! I'll have to get myself a spool of TPU.

    Thanks for this impressive test report. I did not go back and watch the previous video, but from the clips you showed at the beginning of this one, it looks like you did a pretty thorough job of evaluating the material up front.

    I do not have a 3d printer, but am making a list of all things I might use one for. This looks like a good application. I live in a remote area, so being able to print a gasket rather than make a trip to town is attractive. I realize that modeling time plus printing time could be more than the 4 hour round trip, but it does offer an alternative.

    Thanks again, I am impressed with the thought and effort that went into the test.
