    Default 3D printed clamp pads

    Ages ago, I grabbed some flexible filament that Jaycar was clearing, and finally got around to trying it out
    Used OpenSCAD to model the pads, and enhanced (hopefully) by adding V-grooves.

    I like the grooves!
    Am also getting the hang of OpenSCAD, suits programmers and people with a mathematical bent.

    Flexible (TPU) filament is VERY useful.
    Here are a few things I have made with it.
    I got ll these off Thingiverse and just scaled them to suit within the slicer app.

    I've also made the flexible collar/sleeves in side cable glands.

    And yes have made the clamp pads - about 3 different sizes for different camps.
