STL: link.propsmaker.store/8ZAK0s
Here is my design of a full Chainmail for FDM printers. I have printed with PLA.

Fun fact: you can eat raw ramen because it's pre-cooked and dehydrated.

The cojones of this man, not only to commit that much time and filament to this print, which could fail so easily and undetectably, but to just be casually ripping the layers off like he didn't give a damn, and for it to turn out with so few defects, hats off to you sir.

It's surprisingly strong. The flexibility and all the connections distribute the force pretty good. It can be quite difficult to break.

[@jarnMod]

That has to be from some god tier cooling system and retraction. Really well printed

[@mikoaj2323]

I'm not so sure about that, too much cooling would probably make it brittle. Also layer time was definitely long enough that everything would cool down. So maybe it would be even possible to print without cooling? I'm wondering how long it took him to print this

[@ABeautifulHeartBeat]

I'd guess about 40 hours

[@nbow51]

@@ABeautifulHeartBeat if that’s true, that’s not bad for the amount he gets here. I think a full suit usually takes a couple weeks when not using a printer. If you had an array of printers you could get an army worth of costumes done in no time. It looks really good too imo

[@midgetman4206]

A reverse CNC. Except instead of using a cutting tool, it uses a 3d pen which in itself is kinda like a hot glue gun.

[@CSpottsGaming]

I think 3D printing is much easier to understand when you can see a piece up close or watch the process happen. KZbin is great for the latter, and for the former you could always order a piece from Etsy or elsewhere. It's pretty neat to see the lines where the print was laid down.

[@iSchmidty13]

That layer adhesion is UNREAL, how the heck did you even do this? Is it a specific type of filament?

[@MrDox90]

I'm more surprised that the little rings held together. I've printed small parts and usually they're really fragile. The layer adhesion is a big problem with small diameters. And you seemed to pull on some occasions quite a lot.

[@hououinkyouma5539]

The quantum realm is quite mysterious

[@lurksnitchtongue8986]

I assume it being printed using itself as a support helped

[@VictorTorres-fb8ro]

Because there are lots of little rings they probably share the stress equally, thats probably why they seem to withstand a lot of force for their size

[@MrFadjule]

It honestly seems impossible, how hard they are pulling... should break those tiny rings. I am truly blown away by this, it seems like it shouldn't be possible. What type of filament is this???

Interesting. Do you think you could make better contoured mail by varying the dimensions of the rings? Having sections (which you could wire together) that could naturally fit to the shape of a specific person's head, neck & shoulders (with smaller, finer rings on the head & neck, and thicker over the shoulders) would be more comfortable, while staying practical. A similar design concept has been used in prototype Mars spacesuits (MIT BioSuit), with an internal filament mesh designed to make the suit follow the contours of the human body under pressure (& not turn them into a stiff-armed human starfish...).
