TPU Profile (85A)

This is my TPU 85A profile, tested and used with my Bambu Lab A1 and is how I print anything needing TPU. To use this, simply paste your model in, delete the placeholder one and make sure you have the correct type of filament selected. I use a custom profile because the A1 doesn't officially support TPU 85A, but with the right settings and profile, it's doable and the results are actually quite good!

this profile is still in WIP, once I finalise it I'll update it accordingly

The Problems

• Weird gaps are present on prints, however slowing down or speeding up don't change this, so it might be a moisture problem
• Bed adhesion is good- too good. Sometimes, it'll weld to the plate and dust or stray bits of filament can get trapped in the first layer.
• Infill is finnicky- if you want something squishy, keep the current setting but if not then bring it up 10%-20%.
• Feeding (at least on the A1) is super difficult with 85A, so if you get extreme underextrusion then you'll have to do what I did- run a length of TPU across wherever your printer is and hope for the best.

With all aside though, this is probably the best I can get on an A1 with TPU 85A, so I decided to upload it to hopefully save someone the same struggle I went through when trying to get anything out of TPU to print.

The Boring Bit (copyright, yaaaay!)

This profile is a remix of a model which it, or it's derivatives, have been placed into Public Domain. I couldn't find the original source where I downloaded this version from, so for that reason I linked the above model, which is an upload of the same (or at least a very similar) model. If there are any problems with this. I can change the model file linked or model something else to stand as a placeholder.
