Review on Gizmo Dorks Bronze Filament: Advanced Additive Manufacturing Products for Printers by Seth Singh

Revainrating 3 out of 5

3.6 X-ray. Not great, not terrible.

I bought this 200 gram bronze spool because I need very little to print small brass parts. It does the job but as others have said it's really brittle. It's even more fragile because I live in a very dry region of the US. I was lucky it didn't break while printing. However, after I put the pressure (and let the spool sit there) the filament will break in 2 or 3 places. I often work with an extruder (Ender 3) so I have to disassemble the extruder to insert the broken filament. I also found it prints better at lower temperatures, 190-200. My printer defaults to 220 and this filament gets really stringy at these values. I wouldn't buy it for printing large objects, but it works well for the small things I use it for.

Pros
  • Filament diameter 1.75mm (dimensional accuracy +/- 0.03mm)
Cons
  • Write later
