Gyroid infil appreciation post (i.imgur.com)

I've been using gyroid infil almost exclusively since I first tried it.

I was using cubic before, which was fine, but gyroid seems much sturdier for the same % infil even if it does take a bit more print time.

Also it looks awesome.

I like it, but sometimes I have to use something like concentric for thinner pieces. But in general, it is pretty neat.

I haven't had a use case where something is too thin for gyroid yet. I can definitely see that being useful though!
