    I have been printing with the bronze fill.
    I love it, I have printed up a storm with it (1 full 1.5kg roll).

    195C, 15mm/s first few layers then 30mm/s there after.
    Using Simplify3d due to the insane amount of supports I need.

    However, I use a stainless steel nozzle in 0.40 on a volcano. So it is not quite a fair apples to apples comparison. The volcano has a larger heat zone, so I can run at much lower temperatures and thus do not over cook the material.
