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 used wheel balancing weights (tiny 5g iron bars) and built them into my prints.

    They are pretty cheap and the included adhesive makes it so they don’t rattle around inside if the tolerances of the cavity are not perfect.

    Used them in the base of a tall slim model to make it less prone to tipping over.
