I need a certain, rather complex shaped, flexible rubber gasket for a Dyson vacuum cleaner. Cutting it by hand would be a pain in the rear. My idea is to 3D-print it on my Ender. And now for my questions. a) Is it a myth, that you cannot use flexible filament I a bowden extruder? b) If no, does anyone of you guys can propose a material, that might be suitable for the above job? Thanks a lot!

    I have a Bowden printer (Prusa Mini) and regularly print flexible filament. The key is going very (almost painfully) slow. I’ve gotten excellent results.

    I used Fillementum Flexfill TPU in both 92A and 98A varieties.
