That's great to hear, glad somebody has given this some consideration.

I have not worked with a 3D printer myself, just throwing the question out there... as for a rubber material the Ninja-Flex is a flexible
rubber-like product (used to print drive belts, little tires ect..).
I agree that it seems 3D printing appears to leave ridges/grooves and a properly made mold for casting or injection would produce
the best possible product.
Just wondered if this gasket could be made with a 3D printer with descent results.
