Horse Orthopedic Wedges for Easy Boot Zip Size 3

prusaprinters

<p>These are some wedges I made for our horse almost a year ago after he foundered. I wanted us to be able to gradually adjust the angle of his heels down in fine increments that were less painful. These were made to fit inside the soles of Easy Boot Zip size 3 boots that we had. The horse is doing pretty darn well now-due to our excellent farrier. These wedges probably didn't make that big of a difference in the long run, but they seemed to make the horse a little more comfortable.</p> <p>I doubt there will be a lot of people for whom these specific files would be useful. But, I am posting this more to give people ideas. I think custom orthopedic type stuff is one area where 3d printing really shines. If someone has a need for something similar, let me know and maybe I could help.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><h3>Category: Pets Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong> No</p> <p><strong>Supports:</strong> No</p> <p><strong>Infill:</strong> 50 % +</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> Priline TPU<br/> <strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>I suggest using a firm TPU and a high infill and several perimeters. I used a Shore 95A TPU. Our horse walked on some of these for weeks with only slight deformation.</p>
