Hello fellow reprappers,

I am planning to buy some "metal pla", pla mixed with particles of aluminium/copper/bronze.

I have this feeling that it will not be stronger than normal pla, only much heavier.

What do you guys think?

You are correct. The added aluminum powder only gives the look/feel of the metal, not the strength.
