<p>Is there anything special for printing TPU material e.g extruder or temperature?</p>

<p>It's my first time printing TPU material, so if you have any photos, it would be great if you can share them.</p>

Since it is flexible it refuses to follow the path and starts bending around the opening. There are parts in Thingiverse that you can print to remove that distance. Additionally make sure that your extruder fan is working. After those two modifications, I was able to reliably print flexible filaments.</p>\n'}]
