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

*) 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.

Definitely worth a read
Format: Kindle
This book was everything. It was heart-wrentching, funny, thrilling, sweet, everything. You'll be angry. You'll be sad. You'll be shocked. So much happens and so much is still yet to be explained. I loved it. From the beginning, I was interested in Emmy as a character. She's extremely relatable. She's realistic. She has reactions and feelings that make sense! The boys will make you want to throw things sometimes, but they'll worm their way into your heart eventually. And that ending! Yes! Loved it

Was a great read. What a fantastic Hidden Gem I hope doesn't stay hidden. This was a great darkest reverse harem. The FMC was kidnapped in abuse in her past her and her mom are staying on the property of a different Mafia that uses Greek names. Hiding there for safety. The only person that knows is the leader's wife who is friends with the fmc's mom from high school. The FMC gets involved with the leader son and his two friends. They're all written really well Aries definitely stands out he's a really well-written great character. But I like them all. There is some other woman drama, so heads up there. But I would call this like a medium burn. They get together this book and there are some spicy steamy scenes. But I'm really here for the plot the plot is great the characters are great. I kind of had a feeling of one of the thing is going down from the title of the next book and just a feeling that I got. There are multiple povs it's more the fmc's point of view but we got the guys povs only need them which I really liked. I really love the story it's really enjoyable I'm so excited for next book and I'm really excited to see that the authors would be putting out a book every month after this book I can say I'm excited to read anything that she writes I'm hoping they're all RH. There were some like typos spelling errors but it did not hinder my reading experience. Just Small Things having someone do a once-over on could pick up. But honestly like it's is a five-star read in an extremely impressive debut and even if it wasn't a debut I would say it's impressive. It's hard to balance a story with this type of feel a lot of times I think it came out really well and I'm completely enthralled I can't wait for more highly recommend

Though a familiar trope, it had these teases of intrigue that are enough to keep the story interesting to pull the reader to keep reading, to invest in the plot. Enemies (bullies)-to- lovers, mafia, and RH tropes are all so overworked that there is very little new in the way of a storyline. While I can't say this story is utterly unique, I found myself enjoying the characters and their dynamics together. I look forward to seeing how things go from here between the guys and Emmy, and even how Paloma will fair.

awesome

I’ve never read a book by this author before, but she knocked it out of the park! Thanks so much for thinking of us readers who are left with book hangovers and just need the next book in the series. I just downloaded the next one. I don’t normally write reviews but this author needs to be out there so everyone can find her. Great book, excellent characters and pacing. Wonderful storyline.

pleasantly surprised!
Format: Kindle
So, I’ve been on the Find Me (WITSEC) book train and trying to find a book to hold me over until the second book comes out and omg now I’m going to have to do the same for THIS book! I was drawn in from the beginning. The characters, the multi POV (which is one thing WITSEC lacks), the world building! Excellent! I love a good grovel and I think these guys are headed that way now! I can’t wait to see where the next book takes these characters! Now….what do I do while I wait?
