I got a good deal on a used Manfrotto 175 Spring Clamp, but half of the rubber pads (part R175,05) were missing, and the other half was badly worn with official replacements being either nigh-unavailable or crazy expensive to get. As I had been wanting to experiment with TPU / flexible filament for a while I figured this was a nice, simple project to give TPU a try. The print is super simple and should be done in 20-30 minutes, depending on what printing speed you're using. And while I haven't put the replacements through their paces yet, the shore 94A TPU filament I've used grips a piece of paper pretty tightly and you need to use quite a bit of force to get it out of the clamps' jaws. They fit great, too.

I'm a DIY and photography enthusiast who loves to make stuff in his spare time. My DIY interests are pretty diverse, mostly I see something I want to make or a technique I want to learn, then start doing it until I reach a certain level of proficiency / get bored with it and move on. If you're interested in what I have been up to in the past (or right now), just check my flickr, instructables or deviantart accounts, you'll see most of it. Anyway, I think that should be the gist of it.
