I have a basic shoe design
As you know, I started designing custom 3D-printed shoes for myself. This is a follow-up.
So, I spent some time modeling a basic, thin-walled shoe. Nothing fancy, just a quick something to test the fit and do my first TPU print - although I'll probably start with test pieces before printing this doozie.
One shoe fits on the bed of our Prusa Mk4 - barely.
It's a 17-hour print. Yikes! I think I'll probably do this over the next week-end, otherwise my colleagues will kill me.
The support is mostly inside the toe box and promises to be a real b*tch to remove:
The shoe is very close-fitting, but I've left 2mm all around inside: if I mess up, or if the TPU shrinks like I think it will, it has a chance to remain wearable. If it doesn't, I'll simply put a sock on.
Stay tuned 🙂

Ah yes, the famous escort boots as seen in the Series IV episode "Justice" of the TV show Red Dwarf! 😃
Hehe yes, they do look a bit like that.
Now you make me want to watch a few episodes tonight... 😃
You should, there are not many TV shows as re-watchable as Red Dwarf 😀
Tell me about it... I have all the seasons on DVD, and all Brittas Empire seasons too. They just don't make good comedy like that no more.
There’s your shoe model name - the Rimmers!
