   Is it possible to open the aliexpress front page without getting 1337 new project ideas?

     Far from perfect, because I had to abort it early. But plating copper onto this filament works very well, and I ran the entire 1.5 A of plating current through the plastic!

     Phew, 5 hours something later and I'm quite happy with the results!

     Oh boy, the manufacturer recommended 50 mm/s max print speed really makes you appreciate modern day printers and materials.

     On an entirely unrelated note:
     Has anyone here tried this condctive filament?
     There's tons of it on there, and they promise really low resistance. Some call it PLA-Replacement, some call it Nylon, I can't find anything about what it actually is, but if it holds its 1.4 Ohm*cm claim... damn.

     @gigabecquerel interesting! Last time I looked into this no conductive filament could carry the right level of current.
