Electroplating Cheap 3D Prints to Real Gold

I turned a cheap 3D print into real metal - copper, nickel, and finally gold. What started as ordinary plastic ends up looking and feeling like a solid metal object. In this video, I show the entire process: from 3D printing and surface preparation to electroplating, polishing, and final metal finishes. This technique works for all kinds of models - props, jewelry, decorative objects, and more - not just dice. If you’re into 3D printing, electroplating, DIY fabrication, or transforming plastic into convincing metal objects, this one’s for you.
