Hi everyone.... I spent some good time making these rubberized plastic edge protectors for TOTAN (see the RED things in the pic!) and I figured that they might be something worth selling at some point... but I would love to get some feedback on them to ensure they are of quality and of decent fitment to most people's liking. Because these are semi-flexible, they pretty much stretch right on and stay put nicely as they are a bit grabby, no glue or adhesive needed! These are 3D printed out of TPU which is Thermoplastic Polyurethane and I expect them to last for 10+ years or maybe even beyond. (https://tractus3d.com/materials/tpu/)
I have 3 things I'm curious about...
1. I will send a set of these to the first TWO TOTAN owners in the USA that would be willing to give me some time and feedback on how they fit etc.
2. I'm wondering about colors... mine are red because that was the material that I had on hand... it doesn't look bad per se, but I would be curious about other colors that might be of interest to people (GOLD is NOT an option currently, but I will look into it). I don't think that CLEAR will be good either as they will really show dirt. The colors available to me right now are here -> https://shop.fillamentum.com/collections/all?uff_xte7so_tags=Flexfill%20TPU%2098A. I attached a poll for this question!!
3. Price... for a set of 3, what would you pay given that they should last the life of your game? I was thinking $20. It does take 2.5 hours to print a set of 3 of these.
thanks, hit me up with questions etc!
