G'day Everyone,
I am relatively new to 3D printing, have had my 3D printer for only a couple of months. Its been an interesting experience learning the capabilities and the pitfalls of 3D printing.
I would like to build some structural items, knowing the structural limitations of an object printed in filament layers I was thinking that it may be possible to print an object with a low percentage infill (possibly using a honeycomb pattern) and fill the voids with an epoxy resin. The resin would need to be quite viscous to flow into the small voids, with a suitable curing time to be workable.
Has anyone tried this before or have any hints in regards to a suitable resin type filler?
I am using ABS, also built a acetone vapour chamber which improves the appearance of the print and strengthens it also, but the item I need must be stronger than what I can currently produce.
I have search for this topic, but have not found anything yet.
Any advice would be great.
Regards Phil.
