Inspired by creators and the age-old style of "Steampunk," I built a copper electroplater for PLA plastic parts. By applying a layer of graphite and primer to the outside of the prints, the electroplating process began to deposit copper ions onto the conductive surface. In the coming months, I hope to upscale this operation as I move to begin a copper Ironman suit. This endeavour reflects my curiosity and my ambition to explore the boundaries of material properties and their applications in enhancing the functionality of 3D-printed components.
