Like I mentioned yesterday I was going to give the copper filament a try, it dosen't just look like copper, copper particles actually make up 20% of the filament, so you can polish and tarnish the prints just like real copper , unfortunately you need a tumbler to shine the prints , essentially it's a washing machine but instead of water its little screws or other metal bits and after a few hours of tumbling the part turns shiny since I don't have one I tried my best to make it shiny with sandpaper but it's not the best result, I put in at least an hour into sanding and I'm still not done.
I also printed a Bitcoin coin and a hive token. They did not turn out amazing but this material is not the easiest to work with, you can see how the part look like off the printer without any post processing
I will look into blackening some of the copper prints to see how it looks , and I'll be sure to share the results with y'all , thanks for stopping by
how much was your printer i got an anet a8 but never got it working correctly i bought a lvling sensor but it broke mid shipment got my money back in amazon but i stopt trying after that lol
i had bought bearings and sensor i suspected that and maybe speed when i tried to print the lines were all squidly lines . no real plans to buy another but i had my eye on a ender 3 or so since it has resume and open source i believe
