I’ve never found an elegant solution to add weight to prints. What are your favorite ways? What’s the best cost/weight ratio? Weight to space? Cost/weight/space balance?

    I’ve used both plaster of Paris and Portland cement. But both have exothermic curing processes so you have to be careful with large cavities. I have also used some of the very low temp alloys for smaller prints with mixed success. Stuff like Field’s Metal, Wood’s Metal, or Rose’s Metal.
