Where? It's just pictures, no adress or so.

Well i want something like ninjaflex. The revolve3d pellets were just like ninja.
I have more than a year expericence in extruding PLA, ABS and some flex.
Revolve3d's flexible pellets were not difficult to extrude, somewhere between ABS and PLA.

(TPE will stretch but not compress the same amount.TPU both compress and expand the same.)
if i have understood correctly.

TPE pellets where???

Why is it so f****** hard to find anyone selling flexible pellets in europe??
I haven't found a single one yet.

IF you find any in US the cost of shipping is 10times more than the actual pellets cost.

Do ANYONE have any info about the TPE pellets Revolve3D sold and where to get them?
I mailed them the question but did not answer me.

Would a SHORE A 55 work?
I know the Ninjaflex is A 85. And the Alphagary 3019 i tried i think was A 40/45 (way to to soft),
it worked when printing VERY slow (5mm/s) but it SMELLED like ass when extruding and printing.
