@ GR5 The angle is downwards, any angle is right i think, the felt is transporting the oil very well, same principle as in any Sharpie pen or similar. @ProfePaco Thank you, now its more clear. If we really need to elimiate the Oil in the Bowden Tube, i think the use of some Pipe cleaners is a good idea, make a longer chain and push a view times up and down the Tube, this will may have a good effect to clean the tube. My metal washer is more temporary, i adapted now Roberts "hub adapter" with a larger outer ring, 18 mm diameter. Robert is not here this days, hope this is ok that i am try to figure out what works best for me, adapting small parts of his work. I will print it today and will test if it works as expected. Ohh thank you, the MK8 looks great. But i guess, its not the same diameter then the original one? Maybe we will have a troubles because the material feeder flow? I do not know much about that. I reprint the new parts in PLA, higher infill, maybe this will make the parts stronger.

Thank you ProfePaco, this is very helpful.Do you change the Temparature by hand? Or do you edtit the print file? I had a issues yesterday. The Filaflex was jumping off the ball bearing, and stopped transporting. Now i added a washer on the outside, that is a little bigger in diameter than the ball bearing, this way, the soft Filament can't go anywhere. Also i was thinking on your idea of the pipe cleaners. I drilled a 3mm hole in Roberts "Snap on Guide" in a 30 deg angle. insearted a felt, the way it looks a bit out of the inner transport hole. It just needs 2 drops of oil on the outside and it lubricates the filament very well. The transport wheel and ball bearing stays clear and it is easy to use. Hopefully Robert will think about it, and maybe adding this to his design. *PLEASE ROBERT* The back of the snap on guide has broken 2 times now, maybe it should be a bit thicker too? Anyone had the same Probelem? I printed all in this green ABS with 20% infill, maybe this should be also a bit higher? Finally, i printed the Tree Frog today, cames out perfectly in Filaflex. No Problems anymore.

Hi all, i am new here. First i want to thank you, all of you that helped finding such a nice solution for Flex Filament. specially to Rob, for sharing his brilliant Design i am using now, and second to all the tester and developers who helped finding the best way using it, really Thank you so much for sharing this here. The oil trick is awesome! I use a Ultimaker 2, changed this morning to Robs feeder. First i had no luck with Filaflex, then i added just a tiny bit of oil, and cant beleve it, it relly works. Wow, what a great sucsess. thank you guys, you are amazing. And ProfePaco, your udea is great, so esy to apply oil now, like it. Did you never had problems because the feeder wheel is getting oily like this? I will try this too and will post if i had any problems. you new print speed is verry cool, i was trying much slower.
