When placing a flexible handle on a tool, you may need a Self Fusing Silicone tape or other similar product. However, [strong printability] found that with a 3D printer pen and some flexible filaments, you can easily create flexible grip.
In this case, the hammer first wraps a layer of blue paint tape on its wooden handle. This can be used as a base to promote good adhesion. Then print a simple paper template as a guide for creating graphics on flexible grips. The flexible filament is input through a 3D pen, and the red and black details of the graphics are printed first. Then, use the white flexible filament to make the remaining flexible retainers. Then, before adding the second layer to the top, grind the first layer of flexible filament with a wood burning tool.
The result is a flexible white handle on the hammer, probably due to the shrinkage of the plastic as it cools after printing. We have seen other creative handles made with 3D printing before. Play the video after the break.
