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.

Easy to use for older folks - and FUN.....???
Size: 100ft, Color: Black
Love the light weight. I can turn the spigot just a bit and the hose will grow in length as i walk around to the front of my house. It's just enough to get a good drenching without knocking my plants around. However, the nylon covering snags easily, and I can see that I may need to replace the hose quicker than I had hoped. I'll probably get the same brand of i have to do so. The sprayer is decent quality, and its multi-functions are handy. I kind of like watching it shrink as I empty it and wrap it up. Never thought a garden hose would actually add a little fun to the chore!

Nice, light hose with nozzle
Size: 25ft, Color: Black
Nice short expandable hose. I had a longer expandable one which got a big leak. So I bought this shorter one since I only use it to water the plants on the patio. So far, it works great; but people have to know that short means short. The nozzle fits this hose; my other nozzle is too big. So having the short hose and the right nozzle in one package works for me.

Love this light weight flexi hose!
Size: 50ft, Color: Black
Great hose. This is my third because the only downside is that the area connected to the spigot can crimp and ultimately leak. It’s easy to keep that from happening if you are the only one using the hose. But if others, like your kids or a garden helper use the hose, they don’t always recognize that.

Weak but excellent please read.
Size: 50ft, Color: Black
Breaks a lot, but Is 100% convenient. My third annual purchase. Beats rubbing stuff off of twisted rubber hoses. Darned if u do. Darned if u don't. A 5-10 yr version one of these will outsell the entire market.
