🧵 Copper-Filled Silk Filament Printing Material Review

LOWEST TEMPERATURE = Brilliant. This filament prints much shinier between 190°C and 200°C, although it says you can print up to 230°C. accidentally discovered that it turns dull gray as the temperature rises. You want to print at the lowest print temperature for the shiniest silver. (See photo) Please note that I did not measure the temperature at the nozzle with a multimeter, so it may differ slightly for your installation. Also, unlike other PLAs, this material is very sticky (will shrink on…

The filament was well packed and the vacuum bag also has a zipper. Inside the bag was a desiccant bag. The coil was well wound and dry. This is a yarn with a very high pearlescence. My experience with such threads shows that they are softer but very smooth. You are really struggling with your extruder. They stick or slide. If they slip, they easily wear out where the extruder bites and cause jams. Because of this I have found that higher extruder temperatures produce less viscous flow and less…

I purchased this filament after reading previous reviews so I knew I was probably in for a wild ride. As you would expect, the thread was packaged in a hard, resealable plastic bag. At first glance, there was nothing wrong with that. The thread looked similar to other "silk threads" I've used in the past, although it felt "light". It's hard to explain, but I'm used to a very hard thread and somehow it felt easier. The original purpose of this thread was to reproduce the golden angel for the…
