This is about all it's good for, visuals. The ones with any kind of ferrous material that oxidizes can look pretty cool, but it doesn't do anything for strength and needs a hardened nozzle. Would destroy copper ones.

Oh yeah, visually I get it. I saw someone who did a print of the Planet Express ship from Futurama in a copper infused filament, then put in it, I believe, a mild vinegar soak to cause oxidation and got a fantastic green patina on it.

For me, it's that more of what I print now are for functional uses rather than decorative ones (aside from my wife wanting some articulated print in place dragons recently).

I've been eyeballing that Prusa Core One but unsure about getting it, mainly due to filament pricing. Looks like the price for some Carbon Fiber spools has tripled since I last had a printer.
