This new cloth structure combines TPU and PLA to provide a flexible, snap together cloth with all of the appearance options available with PLA. The interior structure uses long strands of TPU to provide surprising strength while still remaining quite flexible. You can see it in motion in this video.

The panels are fun to fidget with but you can also trying them together to build structures - if you come up with any patterns, be sure to share them in the comments.

There are two basic connector types:

Horizontal connectors are the strongest (due to the print orientation but most be installed at 90˚ angles.
Vertical connectors can allow you to ‘patch’ several panels together without changing direction. Due to print orientation, these aren’t quite as strong as the horizontal but can still hold fairly well.

Connecting & Disconnecting the Parts

The panels connect and disconnect using small pegs on the perimeter. These will fit into the gaps on the panels and use the stretchiness of the TPU to hold themselves in place. At high angles, the connection between panels can be quite strong. Just change the angle and they can also be easy to disconnect.

Choosing Filament

TPU 90A is my favorite for his model - it bridges without issues and is much looser than 95A (making the fabric more flexible.
TPU 95A works well but the reduced flexibility is really noticeable - especially for smaller parts.
