College son missed ducks so we mailed them to him

Yeah. The copper for instance is about 80% copper particles embedded in plastic. It feels like metal, you can put it in a tumbler and polish it. The wood is similar. You can sand it and carve it.

We have other metals, transparent glass and translucent crystal colors, marble. The cookie cutter is specifically a dishwasher and foodsafe filament you bake after printing so the microscopic holes seal up.

Printer itself I highly recommend Prusa. I ordered mine as a kit. My boys and I put it together and calibrate in about 9 hours. Was $599 base I think but it's easily modded and Ive made a few hundred in changes over last couple years.

I have it set up well enough now my wife even uses it sometimes, as long as it's a preset and she doesn't have to play with temps or flow rates. Not knocking her, she has lots of skills I don't. She just doesn't fiddle with stuff like that.

Sweet!!
Probably different types of plastics specific to each 'mix' and application.

I love the duck cookies, very clever. The 3d printing stuff amazing.

Now forget the ducks, we are on to my real baby. 3D printing is pretty fun and useful. These are older pics, I've gotten so used to using it for things around the house I don't bother to take photos any more.
