Is it possible to use Ninjaflex filament to 3D print a gasket to make a weatherproof wildlife camera?
tl;dr Yes, but neither the resulting gasket nor the slot in the printed parts were true to the size of the SolidWorks models.
The gasket was printed using the LulzBot Taz 6 with the Flexystruder tool head and Ninjaflex filament. The width and height of the gasket in the SolidWorks model was 2 mm. The printed width ranged from 2.20 to 2.37 mm. The printed height ranged from 1.77 to 2.01 mm.
The plastic model was printed using the LulzBot Taz 6 with the LulzBot v2 Hot End tool head and ABS filament.The width and height of the slot in the SolidWorks model was 2 mm. The width of the slot in the plastic model varied on the printed part from 1.76 to 2.11 mm.
