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. :)
brilliant way to reuse, nice setup
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.
So much effort for so small result. Works as a proof of concept.
Wonderful. I always thought we could do🎉🎉 more with PET.
PET is safe and amazing plastic type.
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
Great work
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😊
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.
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
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.
Reduce reuse recycle. This guy gets it
Meanwhile....he makes pounds of useless trinkets out of pounds of plastic..lol
Congratulations man : your project is super clean and well explained
Can't wait to try it myself
Most amazing idea I have ever seen. I don’t have a 3-D printer, but this makes me want to get one.
So you can build a complex machine, spend alot of money trying to get it working, and waste endless hours to save $0.40.
@@outkast187 he's saying it looks fun
@@outkast187 I don't think anyone does this with saving money in mind, pal.
@@SoulAir I dread to think what else you consider fun
@@luriddream Jurid, you a busta
Wow, what a nice clean result! Thanks for making this video. One tiny suggestion, you may be able to use a high tack tape like duck tape to remove the adhesive without the mess of a solvent. Try sticking it and pulling it off, or "tapping" with quick stick and tears. Depending on the adhesive on the bottle this can be a really effective way to remove sticky residue.
Or just use some rubbing alcohol and not risk adding more adhesive mess to the adhesive mess you're trying to deal with?
I think the solvent also gets rid of other dirt so I would prefer that from using something sticky.
"I removed the glue... using more glue!"
@@casualcampaigns 😂
Отличная работа !!!
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?
And the best thing is....
This may solve the plastic waste problem WOW....
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.
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?
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
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.
Simple and effective and not less genius
Спасибо тебе за переработку мусора!!
Это же не мусор... А ресурс😊
@@maximhlinsky6488 преобразование мусора в ресурс
Simplemente impresionante. Felicidades amigo. Saludos desde México
It would have been so funny he he made a pop bottle out of it.
el sistema esta bien,pero el hilo en su interior es hueco ya que lo pliega no lo funde,no se aprobecha toda la botella mas el tapon,hay que tener muchas botellas a ser posible de 5 o mas litros para sacar buena cantidad de hilo,lo mejor teniendo algo de presupuesto es hacer la extrusora con un tornillo sin fin,aprobechas todo al 100% incluido los sobrantes o piezas fallidas de la impresion y sacas metros y metros de hilos sin tener que unirlos,sale el hilo macizo y del grosor requerido
Amazing, pure genius ❤
I just saw a video of the space station, how it throws garbage to earth to be disposed of on re-entry, it is as if garbage is thrown out the window of a moving car, and it only disintegrates, either because of this video where others put the waste to an optimal 👍 use.
First video of yours I have seen and you just got a new subscriber
Good job
It would be amazing if you 3d-printed a green PET water bottle using that recently harvested material
😁
good afternoon, is it possible to have a 3D model for the winding machine?

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)

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.
Very satisfying to watch!
Amazing. Brilliant work
Dude I enjoyed watching this video. Awesome idea!
Nice! Awesome job!
Bravo 👏 very good work 😊
Well done turn it into a business A1
Thanks. I was mesmerised.
Very ingenious!
Out fricken standing!!!!!
❤❤❤❤
Fantastico
❤❤❤❤
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
Damn... very cool, out of the box thinking. Love it all
You sir, are THE Plasticsmith.
I don't mean to be a downer... But surely you create more waste (not just time)... But in carbon footprint... Then you could ever hope to take away by reusing the plastic. What if you were to use that same time and effort in something a bit more thought out and planned...
I think what you were doing is awesome. I'm just playing devil's advocate. Not only is this a really clean and revolutionary way to process these materials... But also if it's something you enjoy... That is super important. And you're also bringing it to a wider audience who will iterate and create, maybe coming up with better processes or more efficient process. Or just giving people ideas and inspiration in general. That is worth a lot so don't take my discounting and dismissive demeanor to be my full opinion on the matter.
Holy crap I didn't see the finished product by the time I had commented first. That is super cool! Not only is your process awesome but such a cool finished product and it really does look great. I made a lot of shop tools for my fine woodworking shop out of recycle milk cartons and other HDPE things several years back. Made a bunch of molds, already had the heat presses and stuff from working with knife sheath material... And other thermoplastics..... It was a lot of fun and I use those tools a lot. They will see lifetimes of use and will hold up very well I'm sure. Keep it up! Very cool and inspiring
RIP bottle! You were like father to him! 🙏🏻
Awesome
Brilliant. Thanks.
Simplesmente o melhor(PtBr)!
many thanks ! great job❤
Impressive
I guess the main hurdle for getting them from common trash or landfills is that they come crumpled abd you have to clean them.
Very cool
I want now a video with tips to create my own pet 3d printing plastic!
Dude that is awesome!
So cool!!
finally someone printing usefull thing with PET
What is your settings for printing PET ? Nozzle Temperature ? Plate Temperature ? Speed of printing ? Diameter of the nozzle ?
Thanks 🙏
0,4 mm nozzle, 255 C extruder, 80 C plate
255/260ºC, 60ºC hairspray strong hold, slow, 20-40mm/s, 0.4mm
@@function3D Super, thanks for your complete answer !
Well done!
So genius
Amazing 👏
Is there a simple way to make a single longer filament from multiple bottles?
Someone should make a printer that prints from the initial flat slices of the bottle or straight from the bottle shape
Super cool!
Boy I sure do love this
frickin genius
Fab 👍
Flipping amazing
Love it!
Muchas gracias por tus video y en general por todo el projecto. Te quisiera preguntar que tipo de disolvente usas para limpiar y desengrasar las botellas, al ir al leroy merlin hay tantos que hasta los universales tienen diferentes ingredientes entre ellos que pueden comerse el PET. Muchas gracias
Uso disolvente sin olor, lo compro localmente en una tienda de pinturas, el fabricante es Jaber S.A.
So cool
Excellent!
What temperature are you printing at? Other necessary settings?
The one, should have got the Nobelpreis👍
Is it worth it? I mean by that, does it use more energy to produce such filament than buying new stuff?
If you have all tools and equipment during recycling the plastic.
@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
Brilliant !
Awsome smart person! Good for them.
Amazing
Good.
No si butta via niente... Tutto è Utile 🫶🔝💪💪💪 Grazie ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ di Gradimento Assoluto
That was cool
You need technology for gluing the ends of the fimlament. It is not convenient to print in chunks.
That was clever...
Can you join several bottles worth together?
Not sure why I expected to see a pet bottle as a companion
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
Now I know what to do with my dual ball bearing bottle cutter.
Really nice but a 1,5L PET bottle costs in germany 0.25€ so 1kg would be 8.50€ without electrizity,... for 15 - 20€ you can buy a new one 😢
Cool
So nice
