Bronze prints - IdeaTo3D

Projects // Bronze prints

4 August 2014

BronzeFill prints with filament from Colorfabb. This filament comes out of the printer with a mat and clear brown color, it can be smoothed and polished to have a real bronze aspect.

Once post-treatment is done the object looks and feels like real metal. It is 3 times heavier than PLA objects, it feels like you have something “real” in your hands.

Some example of bronze prints:
