CC3D 2.85mm Silk Copper PLA 3mm 3D Printer Filament 1KG 2.2LBS Spool 3D Printing Material Silky Shiny Shine PLA Metal Metallic Red Copper

As you can see from the pictures I used the Gold, Silver and copper to print some dog lamps for a dog rescue we sponsor. The lamp shade resembles the cone a dog wears sometimes when it gets back from the veterinarian. The Gold and Copper look just like gold and copper. The Silver looks shiny but not as good as the Gold and Copper. I printed using normal PLA settings in Cura. The overhang settings were changed to triangles instead of lines since the PLA is more brittle than normal PLA or PLA+. Due to the brittle nature, the collars were printed with normal PLA so I could drill into the collar and install threaded inserts for the lamp shade holder.

The media could not be loaded.  I own two Ultimaker 3 Extended printers. Over the years I've tried dozens of "metallic" filaments. Including of course the silver that comes with every Ultimaker printer. Nothing compares with this material. Excellent adhesion, great color and glossy shine. Excellent packaging with re-closable bag. Filament was wound very evenly on the spool. No tangles. Spool fits on spool holder of the UM3 perfectly. As good as Ultimaker OEM filament. The Gear Bearing in the video is one of the most demanding models a printer can produce. Printed perfectly with all gears moving freely on the first attempt.I only purchased the copper for a trial, but based on this experience I'll probably order a spool of silver and gold.

This is my first time using Silk PLA, I was skeptical at first, but after my first print, this stuff is amazing! The filament itself is a little brittle, a little bend in any direction will cause it to snap. It looks great on the roll and even better after being extruded!Prints using this material will need a lot of support structures, it behaves differently from the usual filament that I use. (PolyLite PLA)

Prints like a dream on a Lulzbot Mini. Super shiny and smooth. Initially when changing the filament it is very blobby and extrudeds in a thick mess. I thought it was going to cause a problem but the actual print extrusion was great.Supports are a little brittle and can cause you to break the tiny parts though. So one thing to look for. Otherwise came out great. Even articulated parts!

When I got it I was sad to see the resealable bag was opened and the spool looked loosely wound. I started to use it and realized it was knotted on the roll. When I started to unroll it to fix it I found it easy to break. The color comes out nice when it works but it'll break or snag and ruin your print.

I have reviewed other 3D filament before, some good, some bad, but I have got to say this is one of the better filaments that I have put through my TAZ6. I have a couple of brothers in my Scout Troop who are constantly hurting themselves so I made a silly award for them, they each got Mr. MeSeeks printed in this filament, because after all "existence is painful Marty!".

this was very brittle and snapped on a couple prints. My other filament does not do this.

This stuff kept jamming. I printed in a range from 220-230, and it would jam randomly from a few minutes to an hour or so. I ran this on the Taz 6, which one of my most reliable workhorses. Someday, I will find a silk brand in 2.85mm size that won't jam.

This is the best copper colour I have come across.

Love the finish and way it looks. Wasn't impressed with having to clean my printer head as it kept clogging up and breaking within the gear feed destroying prints. Don't assume the recommended printing temperature is what will work. It calls for 210 +- 15 I found 240 works. Do test runs.
