He should print the bottle back.
I was hoping he would print a bottle.😅
😂😂😂
Formidável! A natureza agradece.
You're alllll righttt 👍😎
Pmsl 😂
Damn man, this is by far the most simplistic and CLEAN method I have seen! And the fact that you share the build list is an added bonus. Thank you!! How long did it take you to develop and test this out? It is wonderful
Yep and also its not working.
The diameter is all over.
@@tonycstech Well, its a great beginning IMO. I do hope you keep at it. It has inspired me to look into trying something similar with my spare parts!
@@tonycstech The diameter depends on you, how consistently you are able to cut the PET strip, ultimately how patient you are to develop the skill to handle the PET bottle cutter, the machine only does the hard work but does not solve the inaccuracies in cutting
Cut the bottles twice as thin, take two different colors and combine them into one philoment, half will be of one color, half of the other.
Awesome idea!
Absolutely the cleanest extrusion setup I've ever seen. I tried doing it once, it was a mess.
Amazing. Well done and kudos for reusing the bottle like this. :)
Nice! Awesome job!
Dude I enjoyed watching this video. Awesome idea!
First video of yours I have seen and you just got a new subscriber
brilliant way to reuse, nice setup
Amazing. Brilliant work
many thanks ! great job❤
Отличная работа !!!
Super cool!
So much effort for so small result. Works as a proof of concept.
Amazing, pure genius ❤
Is there a reason why you're manually puling and winding the ribbon? PETpull winds the ribbon to a spool. PetBot makes filament right off the bottle strip without the extra winding step.
My guess is that it's simpler and doesn't require a lot of extra effort.
Having the ribbon wound onto a reel means that the extruder doesn't have any resistance to work against. Grabbing and pulling is the easiest way to cut the ribbon.
Love it!
Very satisfying to watch!
Dude that is awesome!
Bravo 👏 very good work 😊
So cool!!
Simplemente impresionante. Felicidades amigo. Saludos desde México
Great work
What temperature are you printing at? Other necessary settings?
❤❤❤❤
Fantastico
❤❤❤❤
Brilliant. Thanks.
Damn... very cool, out of the box thinking. Love it all
Wonderful. I always thought we could do🎉🎉 more with PET.
PET is safe and amazing plastic type.
Not sure what you're using as a solvent to get the clean off...... but if it's something nasty you should look at using "Cold Pressed Orange Oil- 16 oz (D-Limonene). Also, can you splice the ribbons together prior to loading in for extrusion?
Is there a simple way to make a single longer filament from multiple bottles?
Coooool!!!!!
Thanks. I was mesmerised.
Boy I sure do love this
Brilliant !
Dont you dry the filament before using?
i find it get way better if i dry it in a eletric oven at minimal heat just before using
I wonder if this can be made into an automatic process. Throw in a bottle. The machine heats it and pushes out the thin plastic thread. This manual process is a bit too much work to become popular
It definitely can be and is automoted, thats usually in factories though. This is just kinda the consumer way of doing it. In factories they just throw all the plastic in a big shreader and melt the chips
I've seen variants of this that have it where it cuts the bottle as it's already being pulled through the pullstruder, so that's one step that can be automated. I've also seen a video mentioning someone actually built the pullstruder into a 3D printer so that he just needed to feed the strips to the printer, and it would fold the filament and immediately print it.
The main thing left to automate would be prepping the bottle for cutting, including heat forming the bottle to be as flat-surfaced as possible, as well as cleaning both the inside and outside. This might be better-suited for manual work, but overall this is still a solid proof of concept I think.
You would use a grinder. Its cost prohibitive to do any other way. And you gotta do massive amounts. All the work this guy did would not net a profit. If he did 30 of those bottles it would produce maybe $10.
You could press that plastic bottle to printing core with chamber, mechanical force and nozzle that leads ready hot core to waterpath, and finally some collecting cylinder that spins slow.
Then there's not waste left from bottle.
Wonderful!
Very ingenious!
@function3d Hi there , thank you so much for this video and for all the links. I have probably used hundreds of pet g settings in my slicer and I've never managed to get such a clean print . Would you mind sharing your slicer settings by any chance I have the same printer . Thank you so much in advance
Fab 👍
Well done!
hello, what setting you use for the machine and what dimension you make the plastic strip?
Awesome
Amazing 😮
Is it worth it? I mean by that, does it use more energy to produce such filament than buying new stuff?
Excellent!
That was cool
I wonder if that stuff would work as weed whip string. Are the plastics similar?
Hello! I've been researching this and similar projects for a few months now, and I must say this is most impressive! I am putting together my own pullstruder using a hot glue gun heated to 200-220°C for the extruder part and should be ready to test it soon, hopefully!
I did have a tiny question regarding the strip guide, though. What do you use as the cleaner inside the guide? From what I can see, it appears to be a bit of sponge, yet if so, I'm not sure if it should be wet or dry. Could you clarify this, please?
Again, very impressive work! Your videos have been very helpful in my journey to make my own pullstruder device! Thank you. :)
Are you talking about when he took the bottle off?
Amazing 👏
Good job
Very cool
what diameter are you printing the filament? ist it really melting or just folding tight?
Folding
Congratulations man : your project is super clean and well explained
Can't wait to try it myself
Simple and effective and not less genius
Super!!!
So cool
Awsome smart person! Good for them.
What is the name for thing that can cut the bottle ( 2 round iron ) and where do you buy it?
i just ordered some heating elements that I'm gonna put in a hotend and control with Arduino :)
the thing i wanna do differently is i wanna have a pump that moves powdered plastic into the extruder, but i think im gonna use a worm gear to do that.
That was clever...
Excelente! Mais uma ideia pratica para reciclagem de garrafas pet
It's not very practical, to be honest. Better off just doing what we already do with bottles when it comes to recycling them. Polyethylene terephthalate is a type 1 plastic, recycling it is not a big deal, we just don't do it as much as we should because of negligence.
This is such an excellent way to recycle plastics! Imagine if all 3D printers out there could reuse all the plastic packaging thrown away every day!
We need a new machine for 3D printing that recycles all plastics into filament! I'd buy one if it saved money and didn't cost too much.
Don't know where you are from but usually bottles is already recycled. You even get paid to return them.
Usually they end up in landfills anyway because it’s far cheaper to ship them to third-party countries first world and let them sort through it and just throw it away
Yeah, the sad truth@@kc-jm3cd
Show 👏👏👏👏
You can melt bottle caps into a thin sheet on a cookie tray in a toaster oven. I'd like to see someone turn a thin sheet into a big spiral then into filament.
Great job, have you thought about mixing colors?
Two narrow PET strips in different colors treated to obtain a two-color filament !?
You can change the color of PET filament simply by putting some Marker in it , if the PET bottle is transparent, then you can use a red Marker and write the PET bottle and that should change the color of it
Cool
Pekerjaan yang luar biasa❤
Impressive
Can you make a video how you built the machine? Wanna build my own one
So essentially your doing 2 things 1 your recycling old bottles into 3d print materials and 2 saving buying mass produced branded "cable" for your 3d printers reducing plastic waste correct ?
Would like to know if this is as strong as the commercial stuff
Out fricken standing!!!!!
And the best thing is....
This may solve the plastic waste problem WOW....
Which of these printers is most suitable for printing Pet bottles anykubik kobra, ender 3s1, kingroon kp3s pro ?
It would be amazing if you 3d-printed a green PET water bottle using that recently harvested material
😁
Muy bueno! De los mejores videos sobre el proceso. Por favor podrías decirnos los parámetros de temp del fusor en el extrusor de la tira y luego para imprimir!? Muchas geacias😊
excuse me can you make a video of the electronic wiring of the whole machine ❤❤
I've seen one... but in Spanish very evhaustive Arduino based
follow the link in description
Amazing
You should add a sensor so it stops when it runs out of bottle after the extruder and doesn't birds nest like that
Small mechanical hand to add tension will do it.
Or one of those shopkeeper alarms that gets alerted when a laser by the door can't or can see itself.
Good job.
Does this process emit toxic gas or odour for burning the plastic?
So genius
Reduce reuse recycle. This guy gets it
Meanwhile....he makes pounds of useless trinkets out of pounds of plastic..lol
frickin genius
How much filament is produced from one bottle?
How long does it take to recycle one bottle? Given the preparation time (remove the label, wash the bottle, dry)
link in description
how much do you heat the nozzle?
how wide do you cut the bottle?
It would have been so funny he he made a pop bottle out of it.
Masterpiece
Flipping amazing
Круто !👍
I want now a video with tips to create my own pet 3d printing plastic!
So nice
Badass
❤❤❤
Would like to ask if you can print with weed wacker cord?
I guess the main hurdle for getting them from common trash or landfills is that they come crumpled abd you have to clean them.
Well done turn it into a business A1
Que buen trabajo
Where can I get to recycle the bottles?
