@hebijirik 10 днів тому

I once printed some designs on fabric in TPU. They were somewhat like old engineering drawings so lots of thin lines. The print kept separating from the fabric too easily. What I found saved the whole project was combination of baking paper and ironing. It took few tries to get the temperature right but then I was able to put some smooth plywood under the fabric, baking paper wax side down on top of the printed side of the fabric and iron over the paper. This re-melted the TPU a little while pressing it hard into the fibres of the fabric. The final result looked good and felt durable. I think it even survived some trips through a washing machine on "delicate" settings.

This was a fun one playing a game of 'have I done this'.. A bunch of these were from before the days of metal build plates, so it was clips around the edge of the glass sheet to hold fabric in place. Billie's ones with magnets in the edges make for fun clip-on clothing. And made a bunch of entrance/ID tags for a makerspace using NFC tags and dual colour prints, also lots of fun. Including one with embedded magnets and a reed switch that would change tag ID when you flipped over a part. Glad that worked on the first try because I'm never doing it again!

On the PLA and PETG not sticking part, you can also make jointed parts using that technique. It's similar to how joints in Gundam toys are made, except there they are double-shot injection molded ABS and PP, another pair of incompatible materials. If it's a vertical joint, just make two parts with zero clearance and one will mold perfectly over another, making a smooth joint that will release with some gentle persuasion. PETG's low coefficient of friction helps. It doesn't work as well across layer lines so there a bit of clearance might be needed, but it's still more precise and has more potential for geometry than single-material print-in-place parts.

A trick I found with magnets is some tend to demagnetize when heated up or at least weaken. Sooooo put them on the build plate as you are printing and then insert while hot. When it cools, the magnets are magnetic again (hopefully if they didn't get too hot) and it's less likely to stick to the extruder. I've tried glue, but I find what happens is it then gets stuck and pulls the whole thing off the build plate.

Have you tried printing a thin layer on the inside surface of the T-shirt so that the print sandwiches the cloth to make it washable without disintegrating? Another thought I had is that I wonder if there is a flexible filament that can reach a transition state at less than 90 degrees Celsius. Such a material + fabric that will not combust at that period would allow you to print on the shirt, flip it inside out, place it on a holographic build plate, turn it on and wind up with a hologram t-shirt.

Just add some thread with a sewing machine to the perimeter of each printed section; it would really look cool with contrasting threads. Or you could just do perimeters first then add some fabric glue to the center before the first layer goes all the way down, that would bond it much better. Both of these methods will also make it more durable and washable.
