OMG! I was just considering making a small chest for the remote controls with wooden filament but the high cost it would have had me in doubt. Your trick about using cheap one on the inside is a great trick! Great job and thank you!

That finishing technique for the wood PLA turned out great. I also use that stainless steel pin media for wet tumbling brass cases for reloading ammunition. Even the most corroded and carbon fouled up cases come out looking brand new and shiny. The trick at least with reloading ammo is a generous squirt of dawn dish soap and about a teaspoon of lemishine which is a dish detergent booster to prevent hard water deposits. It is basically citric acid and helps to polish the cases and remove harder deposits. Maybe a bit of lemishine with the brass and bronze parts would shine them up a bit dish soap may also keep the gunk from sticking to the prints.

something you might consider a wire brush and doing a pass or two over the part to slightly gouge the part and simulate wood grain a bit more

@0calvin3 жыл бұрын
The tumbler works like a clothes dryer. It scoops up the parts and drops them over and over again. My father used to metal detect (finding coins underground). He used the tumbler for cleaning the coins by adding small rocks with the coins and letting them tumble for an hour or two. It is useful for anything that needs to be polished, cleaned, or smoothed.

Hey there Rod. I think a product like Brasso could work well in giving it a wetter, shinier look but that is one thing I have not tried yet.
