Hi all!
Anyone tried to 3d-print seals or gaskets with flexible filament? If so, was it successful?
I am thinking of 3d printing a “hardshell house” for my remote with 3d-printed seals.

I haven’t tried it but don’t see why it should not work.
Did you print flexible filament yet? If not keep in mind that it can be hard with a bowden-style printer, you may need to modify it slightly and fine tune the print settings to get a good print.
Nope, have not tried it yet. Still just idéas. I am using a Zortrax M200 printer and the flexible filament is a standard Zortrax-material.
I will post some results here if I go for it.
If it works it would be an easy way to waterproof the remote, I think.
Ok, that is a good printer try it!
But in my opinion designing and printing a fully custom remote is almost easier than waterproofing an existing one, at least it will come out way less bulky - and you have full control over the features.
