General printing guidelines *

Nozzle size: ≥ 0.4mm

Layer height: ≥ 0.2mm

Experience level: Beginner

Print temp: ± 215 - 235° C *

Fan speed: 50-100%

 

Heat bed: ± 0 - 60° C

Enclosure needed: No

 

*) Above displayed settings are meant as guidance to find your optimal print settings. These ranges in settings should work for most printers, but please do feel free to experiment outside these ranges if you think it is suitable for your printer. There is a lot of different type of printers, hot-ends and printer offsets that it is extremely difficult to give an overall one-size-fits-all setting.

*) If blobs/lumps form around the nozzle then your print temperature is too high.

Post processing MetalFil - Classic Copper

Brushing and/or sand grinding

Once printed MetalFil - Classic Copper objects can very easily be brushed with a brass brush or sanded with fine-grit sandpaper. By brushing and/or sand grinding your printed object you will brush/shine up the high concentration of copper powders.

Build-in white polish feature

After being brushed and/or sanded MetalFil - Classic Copper will reveal its white polish feature. A very thin white layer/haze on your object will now allow you to easily polish your 3D print into a beautiful copper object.

Professional polishing with a rotary tumbler

Post-processing a MetalFil - Classic Copper 3D printed object with a rotary tumbler will make your FDM 3D printed object indistinguishable from genuine copper casted objects.

Patina post-processing

You can create several patina effects on MetalFil - Classic Copper printed objects in just one day time. With an ammonia and soda treatment you can for instance easily create a beautiful ancient green/blue weathering effect on your copper object.

Waxing and coating

After every above-mentioned post-processing measure, you can always wax or coat your printed object to get an incredible shine effect. Waxing can be done with products such as beeswax and for coating one can think about products such as XTC-3D.

Abrasiveness

Please be aware that MetalFil filaments contain a very high concentration of metal powders, which have an abrasive nature. In general, these metal powders will accelerate the nozzle-wear of brass nozzles, much faster than unfilled filaments. We recommend using nozzles from stainless steel or other hardened alloys.

Nozzle cleaning

When printing with filled/composite filaments it is recommended to clean your nozzle immediately after printing by feeding 15-20cm PLA filament through your nozzle. This will make sure that any potential fillers are flown out of your nozzle. It is even better to use glow in the dark PLA as the extremely hard phosphorous particles are much more likely to scrape out residual waste from your nozzle.

My Boy Loves His Freezer Toy
Style: Large - Red
The GoSports Pets PupCream Freezable Dog Bone Toy is seriously one of the best purchases I’ve made for my pup! He goes crazy for it every time I pull it out of the freezer. It’s adorable, but more importantly—it keeps him cool, busy, and happy. He loves to chew, and this toy is perfect for that. The material is soft enough for his teeth but still holds up really well. It stays cold for a while, which is great for hot days or when he just needs to chill out. It also helped a lot during his teething stage! Why we give it 5 stars: • Freezable for cooling relief and long playtime • Great for teething and heavy chewers • Easy to clean and reuse • Durable but gentle on teeth and gums Highly recommend this for any dog parent—especially if your pup loves chew toys and needs help staying cool. My boy is obsessed, and I love seeing how much joy it brings him!

Best for small-medium sized dogs
Style: Large - Red
For the price I bought two, one for each dog. I like the idea of this. In practice its not nearly deep as it should be. My dogs love it and spend 10, maybe 15 minutes, working to eat the inside once its frozen. I like the idea I just wish it was deeper than it is. Otherwise its great. Probably better for small-medium sized dogs. I have a 45 pound dog and 65 pound dog and its almost too small for them. Fun snack. The dogs love it. Easy to use and clean.

Great buy! My dogs love them!
Style: Large - Red
My 2 chocolate labs, both males, aged 7 & 8 love these. I've mixed banana and peanut butter, plain yogurt and topped with a few blueberries on top. Freeze them for a few hours and they LOVE them. I ended up purchasing 3 more - 1 as a gift for another dog's birthday party! I recommend these for all dogs 👍

Not durable
Style: Large - Red
I have trouble finding good chew toys for my dog becs there is a problem with everything. Rawhide is dangerous, bully sticks can cause infections, etc. I devised a system where I mix my dog's regular dry food with water, run it through the blender, and freeze it. I have a few bone molds where you can take the ice out fully, which work much better. I thought this would be good for him to lick. Unfortunately, once he was done licking, he began to chew the edges of the bone on this toy, and he was able to EAT little pieces off. I have a 23 lb. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, so he's not exactly a rough and tumble kind of dog. I noticed little red flakes in his poop, so this went in the trash.
