Star Wars Croc Charms - TPU 2 Color

Collection of 8 Star Wars themed croc charms, designed to be printed in TPU with a manual color change (at layer 73 if printing 0.2mm layers). I recommend using regular supports, they come off of TPU much cleaner and easier which is well worth the extra time/material.

The flexibility and durability of TPU makes them the ideal material for these, but unfortunately TPU doesn't work reliably in the AMS, so multicolor printing requires manual color changes.

These were all printed in a combination of Overture and Hatchbox 95A TPU, default generic TPU filament settings seem to work well, but the slicer settings require some tweaking. Make sure you dry your TPU very well before printing to prevent a stringy mess. Even with dry filament there will be some minor stringing with all of the retractions, but a little time with a razor and tweezers cleans them up nicely.

Can also be printed in PETG, avoid PLA as it's too brittle and the posts are likely to snap.

Edit 01 July 2024: Added AMS compatible print profile for PETG, with each model on it's own plate for easy printing from the Handy app
