Yes I print and sell many parts for the 350LC so maybe time to dabble in printing TPU

First attempt cutting out of 2mm black silicone rubber
Will do an update once fitted / tested

The TPU material is impressive in final product.
We've (son runs a printer) been trying different product to output and assess. Longer print time by some margin, but patience brings a significantly robust final output in terms of material integration and robustness. I'm very impressed at that strength and malleable characteristic, viable with not really much in any way compromised as to the item it's used for.
Definitely recommend a trial to assess potential yourself.

I could be wrong, I often am, I think they are essentially dust shields to keep muck out of the mechanism.
Often wondered if an O ring would do the job on each ball end.

Hi Ted
Hope all is well
It needs to be this shape as one of the holes is slotted to allow for sync adjustment.
As got some TPU filament going to also try and print the thin carb top seal that will replace the paper one that always degrades and needs replacement.
Feel there maybe a market opportunity for both parts as they are both neither available individually
