Gold tips

Hi there! I'm interested in printing out some pretty sweet custom jewelry. Can anyone point me to the best filament to make something look similar to yellow gold? I'm also curious as to what type of finishing process I should apply to my printed jewelry as I would really like for my designs to shine.

Re: Gold tips

Hey there @TrinidadJames2015

Two ideas:

ColorFabb BrassFill http://3dprint.com/32271/colorfabb-brassfill-filament/

Once you've printed and finished your item, you could use a gold plating solution https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czTjYlsct_k if you really want a very high gloss.

Also, if you want to actually print IN METAL, this might be of interest..

Hope one of these options appeals to you!

Cheers!
