  • Hello I'm Ivan and this week I tested 3d printing on fabrics with ABS. I've got an

  • old t-shirt and I fixed it on the building plate. Loaded a spool of ABS

  • and applied the following settings: no bottom layers, one outline, 100% infill,

  • two layers. I didn't heat the bed but I increased the hotend temperature to 255 C

  • hoping the ABS will better penetrate the fabrics. First I printed our company logo.

  • It consists in nine solid characters, so it was an easy print. It took around 2

  • minutes - well there are only two layers.

  • It came out nice and solidly sticked to the fabrics.

  • Then I tested a larger and more complex print like the Sting's signature. After the

  • first layer there was some displacement of the shirt on the x-axis but I

  • continued with the second layer and the end result was very ok

  • I don't know whether those will survive the washing machine but it survived this...

  • so 3d printing on fabrics could be a nice technique to make an original

  • t-shirt for an event and make an impression. Thanks for watching.
