Wood filament Chop Cup
Is it possible to print a chop cup in one piece using a wood like filament, and add the magnet during the print?
Sure can do,
I have used 7x2 mm magnets to go into the cup, you will need to pause the print anywhere during the larger cavity start to show up (see 2nd pic)
also avoid steel nozzles, use brass and apply quick hold glue while pausing.
Cup does not nest with other similar cups due to wood filament needs a thicker wall.
