Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

Thanks guys.
Currently working on an alternative lid with a small plaque on the top featuring a rising trout.
Tried a plaque in Bronzefill but it didn't stand out too well against the Timberfill.
I'm going to try again with a sample of Colorfabbs new Brassfill which just came in the post.
I'll post photos later if it turns out well.

Yes indeed, please post the pictures!

Hmmm, not sure about the Brassfill. Seems to come out a bit gritty compared to Bronzefill.
The promo photos look fantastic (don't they always) but I can't seem to get a finish on it that I'm happy with.
To be fair, Brassfill is still in beta. Hopefully, they'll improve the formula.

They both look great to me. I would be proud to say that I printed those and so should you!

I would be tempted to tweak your infill overlap a little bit to see if you can close up some of the infill/perimeter gaps.

Thanks eaglezoar, I think I'd be happier with the Brassfill if I could just get a bit more shine on it.
I'll maybe try a different polishing method.
@geneb, I printed that lid at high speed just as a rough draft, hence the poor surface finish.
