    Is it possible to solder earring posts to the metal prints? If so which metals are the best to solder to? Do any metals deform the print fast when heat is applied?

    Thanks

    Yes it's possible and all depends on which metal you're referring to.

    Slightly off-topic, but is it possible to solder a silver print onto a brass print? I have an idea for a two-part model. It would be my first soldering attempt, so I'd probably practice on some scrap first.

    Have a look at this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWF3VMFrsG0 but still have some test on scraps.
