  • Some incredible minds at work with Steve Schwarzer out at Killroy's Workshop in Colorado Springs made a HUGE discovery in the world of mosaic damascus, so we're here to put it to the test and see if we can replicate their processes and answer the question: can you 3D print mosaic damascus?

    Super cool! By tweaking your print a bit you may be able to make loading the can much easier. Instead of printing a solid bottom layer, print caps on either side of the pattern that correspond to the different alloys. You can then pour all of one alloy and then tape off the cells. Flip the form over and fill all of the other cells for the different alloy. Might make things easier when you have small cells for really detailed patterns.

    That is indeed an exciting new process, and says so much about our smithing community that it was immediately shared. Wow. Guess my wife and I are going to have to have a discussion about the acquisition of a 3D printer!

    I 3d print a lot on the side. I'd be interested in doing some stuff for blacksmiths, if anyone wants to send designs. I'd like to see what this looks like in a finished blade.

    Very nice idea ! I might give a try ! Maybe the best would be to avoid any colored PLA especially the white one as the pigment can be mineral (such as TiO2).

    Hmmm will metal pla filament work even better?
    There are several with Iron/Brass/and others
    Also will a .1 mm nozzle for .1 wall work better?
    you can also make you interior walls thinner than you nozzle but speeding up the print and slowing down the filament feed.
    I now have new things to try

    This is super awesome! I know I'm a month late to this party, but after the PLA burns out in the forge the canister won't be well packed anymore. Maybe the first weld should try to re-pack the powder by using one of the ends as a piston?
