Description

I have a Bosch strimmer and I go through blades quickly. When I need a new blade I have to spend ages digging around to find where I've left the pack and, usually, I end up going to to buy another pack of blades. For what they are, they're really expensive..

So, instead, I started playing around with printing my own. I'm printing them in TPU because they're much more long-lasting. They can bounce against brick or metal and keep on going. And, best of all, they take almost no material and print in 10 minutes. I can make one when I want one and they're cheap.

Don't go down the “stronger filament is better” path.  I started printing these in ABS and, when they hit brick or metal they shattered :-)

I hope you find them useful too

Guides and print profiles

Print profiles and steps

Bosch Strimmer Blade in TPU Printed in Ooznest TPU because that's what I've got lying around. Print it with 100% infill and 3-4 walls. Print with a brim so they don't get pulled off the build plate (my first prints did this).

This has a thickened blade to make it a bit stronger. I used this to strim the grass around a trampoline I have in the back garden and the blade came out 100% intact. No more paying loads for 10 of these things from the DIY store!

Don't go for ABS or PLA. They shatter as soon as they hit brick or metal. TPU just bounces off and keeps on going (but it does cut grass and weeds quite happily).
