Flexy-Form 3D Printable Insoles
Steve Wood is continuing his headline-making path in uses of 3D printing with flexible filament (particularly FilaFlex), with his latest project: 3D printed completely customizable Flexy-Form Insoles. Wood recognized that PLA softens at temperatures above 60 degrees Celsius, and used this property to add a layer of customization to the insoles via molding, making up for FDM 3D printers' weakness in Z layer production. With rigid PLA forming the structure of the insole and FilaFlex as the padding, these insoles create support and cushioning when finished--and Wood has made his files available via OpenSCAD so others can make their own products.
