I've seen and manipulated several designs that follow this same principle, but can be printed in PLA (which allows for an excellent shining look of you use a silver silk variant) and without the need to later knit them, rather they are wholly PIP. I reckon you could make good use of those models for a more convincing look, although you would lose on the comfort and convenience of TPU.
I've had a surprising amount of success with a print in place PLA "proper" chainmail design I found, probably on thingiverse. If I was able to that working so well with my crappy printer, I'm sure you'd have great results with that design on with yours.
This is amazing for cosplay, etc. A group of people who enjoy crochet, or knit could make a lot of chainmail to resale. For say disabled people, elderly, etc. To sale to people who don't have time to make it.
I got a 3D printer. I assembled a few months ago but I haven’t used it once because 1. I’m scared I built it incorrectly that I will break it if I use it and 2. I have no idea how to use it or what I’m doing.
That is impressive!
So cool!
I bet it’s possible to print this pre assembled
Your patience and creativity is far great than mine 😂
Can we find your files and 3d printer configuration and settings?
Uh oh she's already converting to grandmother stage, knitting! 😛

I guess you could also laser cut it. Would be faster

pretty sure this technique can work with metal as well
NO GATEKEEPING ROUND HERE
Stockinette stitch never had so much dimension before, haha. Truly, as a knitter, this is very cool! 💜
I have made chainmail from sterling silver links that I made myself from hardened wire. This looks very similar to the 4-in-1 pattern.

Looks gr8 👍
I know it's a fabric term, but it has phenomenal drape.
