I’ve been using gyroid infil almost exclusively since I first tried it.

I was using cubic before, which was fine, but gyroid seems much sturdier for the same % infil even if it does take a bit more print time.

Also it looks awesome.

    same journey for me, cubic then gyroid.

    I love the way it looks so much I made some coasters using gyroid infill with no top layers, and filled it with resin. such a cool pattern

    I even made a vent cover with it since it lets air through still and looks cool

      That’s a cool idea for the coaster! I might do that if I ever get into pouring resin

        Thanks! It’s fun to mix both skills into one project.

        Here is how they turned out

              I thought so but I’ve only ever used it on taller TPU prints where I want them to basically be hollow so I’ve never seen it look quite like that!

                fairly high infil percentage if I remember correctly. I did 20% first and it was very sparse
