I would have laughed so hard if you printed a Mt. Dew bottle!!
😂😂😂😂
Yes, I thought he missed a trick there!
Lol 😂 😂 😂
same
That would have been pretty funny just that thought made me crackup alittle lol
This is what I have always wanted for FDM printing. The ability to turn plastic trash into filament and then it into new useful things. Awesome!
For real, this hobby can easily create SO MUCH plastic waste. Nice to see people turning waste into 3d prints instead of the other way around.
I want it, but doesn't it look like its a lot of work for a few inches of filament.
How many bottles do I have to collect to make 1 lb of filament?
In many places, taking recyclable materials from the dumpster is illegal. Be careful about the law.
@@bipl8989 wow that’s insightful, even tho you are trying to make good out of it you could end up in jail right? Laws and people!
@@yenespace406 Some city councils sell the right to collect the rubbish to the highest bidder, apparently there's at least some gold in there and as such its become a public resource and pilfering of it is ilegal.
I was going to find out how many typical plastic bottles it would take to make a pound, but after I collected 42, the wind kept blowing me off the sidewalk. I guess I'll have to do it the smart way and weigh just one and divide a pound by that. Then I'll know how many I can collect without getting blown down by the wind, which actually appears to be a more useful statistic. 😉
@@bipl8989 well you should way the strip after you cut the bottle because the ends are wasted in this method
In addition to your technique, which is brillant by simplicity and effectiveness, made me very happy to see how cool we can give new practical life to PET bottles instead of them ending up littering the oceans, really big thumbs up for you Sir!!
Warped alternative viewpoint: all the useless 3D printed stuff will ... end up littering the oceans!
PET is recycled into many things already. This is simply side-cycling.
You're very welcome!
@@pesto12601 especially my crappy models will
Ever heard about polar fleece pullover ?
This is the defenition of recycling. 3D printing suddenly got me way way more interested than before. It feels like you can turn any plastic into something else, anything. Quite mind-blowing if you think about it.
Recently I saw a guy from Brazil with a very similar idea I believe he makes brooms out of his recycled plastic bottles. I have to admit that when I was watching his video the idea of using recycled bottles for 3D printing materials occurred to me. It's crazy how several people can have the exact same idea who have never met. Great job
If you want to watch that guy's process for recycling plastic bottles just look up brooms made out of plastic bottles
The extruder machine must have been a headache to engineer. A lot of factors involved all having to work together. Fantastic follow thru. Very satisfying to watch.
You know someone is going to make a box kit, one of these days.
@@DocWolph There already is (kinda). But it uses pellets and it's not very effective
I you don't know why but this is hard for me to believe also are you trying to tell me that all soda bottles are made of pet G
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET or PETE) plastic - the source material of water bottles, soda bottles and more - makes up 10.2 percent of global plastic production. PETG is the same thing only with Glycol added to give it different chemical properties. PETG is less brittle, more pliable, and more heat resistant, but less recyclable.
this is really interesting, but it'd be great to have more specifics on the process, mainly how to make the custom devices you're using
the king of random did a video on the thing that he used to turn the bottle into a long strip
@@shrub9677 but from the strip to the filament is where we struggle
@@derekdearborn9063 looks exactly like the 3d printer head just mounted to a board and pulled through with a timed gear box.... kinda wish i'd thought of it.. but.. here i am feeling like i need to rethink a lot...
@@shrub9677 What should I write to find this video? Please help me out!
@@Hercules75 king of random soda bottle string
I've seen a lot of comments saying they already thought about this, the difference is you never take action while this man has a goal and your's is still a dream.
love the video keep it up!
Thanks my friend . You mentioned a good point, yes, it is true that most people, even if they are trained, will not go to build it.
Having failed in this several times, I did not sleep until morning to reach this path
This is the easiest way to make filament
Very much disagree. Not everyone has the knowledge, money, and supplies to build one. Yet you generalize that if one has an action in mind everyone that says: I thought about this already, are all quitters.
@@Declopse Agreed; I've been dreaming on about filament recycling machinery since I started making waste prints - like anybody else...
Yet I'm only holding back because I want it done properly/easily, I saw someone mention feeding strips into the printer directly - and I do recall some hardcore DIY extruders that could take pellets / shrapnel directly...
Acquiring the knowledge is the first step; then you know what to buy / how much this project will involve... (A killer for some is when the cost outweighs buying a ready-made unit; which would save a lot of time for sure)
damn bro, you hurt me bruv
great video! anyone looking to do this though should know that this isn't the PETG that people are familiar with, or even PET, it's B-PET or bottle grade. It needs different temperatures and has different challenges to PETG or PET, so it's best to look up recommended settings and experiment with it if you wish to do this yourself.
Another one that was simply not there when they said it can't be done and simply made it anyhow. Genious!
Something that could be done to improve filament "consistency" is making the filament oversized at maybe 1.8mm and then running it through a die of 1.75mm better consistency and nor much sensors or anything required for measuring
There is no need to do this. The final filament is exactly the same size, but the only difference that may exist in some places is the percentage of filament in that part, which I adjust in the 1.5 mm software, which is less than the size it is now, and the reason It's empty filament, maybe you do not understand what I mean I will explain more in the next videos, thanks for asking your question
@@mr3dp as the filiment is being pulled into the roll it will have a certain torque and speed but as the roll fills up the outside diameter of the roll will have a faster velocity than the start of the roll so the filiment will be pulled out faster causing inconsistency in the size between the start and end of the roll. Have you measured the filiment at both ends?
@@Quantainiumify This can be addressed by decreasing the speed of the roll over time, ensuring it is proportional to the amount of filament that has already been rolled.
Or no need to roll the filament right away. Pull the filament with the gears to maintain the same tension and after leave some slack and hand roll the filament. Hope that makes sense…
@@mr3dp i had to watch it a couple times.. really like what you've done... what is the temp of the nozzle? unless it's in the next video.. I'll wait...

Now you can have enough filament for your projects and save the planet. You are an engineering genius
I am genuinely impressed with the simplicity.
Thanks, when I was first able to make and print filament with this method, I could not ask for the happiness of the night. 😅
@@mr3dp Agreed completely and I have to say I’m astounded by your method and it’s effectiveness! I HAVE TO TRY THIS. I HAVE TO DO THIS! Huge applause to you. Greatest thing I’ve seen today and 3d print wise in some time! THANK YOU FOR SHARING!
One word !!! : AMAZING !!! an inexhaustible source of food grade material ! as we say in french : chapeau bas !!!
Effectivement c'est impressionnant !
Don't forget about lead from the nozzle that is what usually makes prints not foodsafe
@@afkafkafk the nozzle contains lead? I didn't know
@@blaisejerome1487 during manufacture of brass nozzles they have to add a bit of lead, I believe steel nozzles have none and Ruby tipped nozzles definitely don't
@@afkafkafk Yes steel nozzles ! I'm thinking about !
The Ruby tipped nozzles i discover !
thank you for this precious informations !
knowing how hard it's to get a consistent filament diameter, i find it hard to believe this method works as shown, would be amazing if it does.
@@mr3dp I am looking forward to that!
One benefit of this method is the very consistent input material size
This is pretty awesome. I'll be looking to setup one of my own but I might change it so it winds it onto a spool and feeds through a loop that goes back and forth to make sure it doesn't tangle.
I am truly amazed! I never made the connection before to use that strip making method and then pass it through a die to make actual filament. Thanks a lot!!
Thanks for commenting
I think creating our own filament has always been a dream of most people that do 3D printing. This looks really good!
Subscribed so I can hopefully catch more on this process because it seems like an affordable way to make my own someday. :)
Awesome! Thank you!
@@mr3dp This got me thinking…. I wonder if you use clear plastic, and run sharpee markers along it before going into the extruder if you could make custom colored filament.
Similar to what people are attaching to their printers, but this way you could make big batches of custom colored filament. 🤔
Here in Brazil, filaments is too expensive. Great ideia! This is
ecological way. I'll try this soon. Thank you.
Thank you for your energetic comment.

Recycling just got a real purpose.
Theach this in elementary and give this man a Nobels Prize!
دست شما درد نکنه رازهایی را میگید که فکرشو نمیکردم ممنونYour hand does not hurt. He says secrets that I did not think of. Thankful
dude that's so sick! i always thought there was a way to turn bottles into filament using this method, but i couldn't quite figure out how to make the filament cilindrical
@@RomaMixRu This is true, but it does not matter if it is empty, if we take into account the width of the tape when preparing the string and reduce the temperature and speed more, the final string will not be hollow.
I would have never expected filament to have enough rigidity just out of the nozzle to PULL the cold plastic in on the other end. Sounds too good to be true, but I guess the lower temperature and the larger diameter helps keep the centre from melting properly. Impressive, might worth a shot :)
it doesn't actually melt 'filament' it just forms PET strip into 'almost tube' shape while it's heated a little bit higher than deformation temp, pretty common and well-known technique
Oh i didnt even realize that it was being heated when pulled through. I assumed it was just being pulled through like a die. Really clever to use a heated nozzle and pull it through that
فک نمیکردم یوتیوبر ایرانی تو این زمینه هم داشته باشیم

ممنون دوست عزیز
Bro you're a king 👑 in this, u don't know how much i enjoy viewing people making his own things instead of buying them, i still thinking if we make our stuff we are free, really free people, not slaves of the market of monopoly
And I don't say this in a hippie way, is just reality, the people don't think anymore in how to do, just how to buy it
That's why the money are slowly eating us
Thanks dear friend, thank you for your wonderful comment
That my friend, was Awesome. I've seen the videos where they used plastic bottles to make string or rope but this is a breakthrough. I guess you need a nozzle with a diameter of 1.75mm or drill out a spare brass nozzle. Now we just need to figure out a way to join the lengths together to make a decent size spool.
The nozzle could be made by drilling a regular nozzle with a 1.75mm bit, Im wrong?
@@emmanuel1631 If you watch the making of Prusament videos, they show that the nozzle diameter isn't as important as the stretching. I bet the nozzle size is probably 2-2.5mm, and the pulling gets it down to around 1.75mm. You'll definitely need a custom direct drive that can handle the variation in diameter.
I'm not able to see mr3dprint reply for some reason. Wondering what his details are regarding the specs for the nozzle and other details. For joining... there is more than one way that can be accomplished. Basically, a tube/pipe the correct diameter can be used on the heated pressed together ends and then slid over the joined section to even out the diameter... then slide the tube to the end. Guessing similar can be performed with that tube cut in half twice so to compensate for the width/thickness of the cutting method with each tube cut in half, so to have a complete tube that can be solder, brazed or glued to some pliers so no need to slide so much distance.
Thank you very much!
Yes it can be done
Oh, man! *This is true recycling* !!! I would need more info on the extruder you used, the temp regulation circuit, the spooling wheels can be seen, and the cutter you used to make the first part from the bottle... all this needs a video apart think if one wants to replicate all this. Anyway thanks for sharing!
Will do.Your answer is in the pinned comment
@@mr3dp I don't see a pinned comment.
Yes, more details please! I would love to give this a try, but need to know more about the hot end you are using to shape/extrude the material. Keep up the great work, and thanks for sharing!!
Thanks dear friend for your energetic comment, for sure, new videos are being made, they will be on the channel soon
Please give technical details, width of strip, nozzle diameter, speed...
A way to join strip together will be useful to make longer filament. Brilliant.
Beautiful. We are ruining the earth with our plastic. I recycle, but so many people don't. Just got a 3d printer, and thought that the bottles would be so good to use for the printer. And here it is. Thank you for the video !
You can do it!

I really love the idea, I have an old 3d printer and I could probably salvage all the parts necessary to build this!
@@mosqit4324 its broken, the motherboard is fried and the y and x axis steppers are fried, so its pretty much trash.
It's amazing no body has made a commercial version of this for home use. There could be some serious money in it. I'd buy one. I.e. put bottle in come back in 3 hours to a spool of filament.
U must be from another planet. Such a perfect system.

Thanks dear friend for your energetic comment
With the utmost respect.. coming from an Engineer.. I smell something fishy here.. Not sure how the plastic is not melting touching the hot part of that nozzle assy you have put together.. Also nearly impossible that you would pull the filament on the other side with the hot extrusion coming out and pull the entire raw materials section into the hot end. Besides, holding the diameter of the filament is done using optics and PID on the reel stepper.
Looks fishy to me too, and wouldn't holding it over a stove, just let the pressurized air out, even if it is rotating? Not even a fan for cooling? The yield he got from just one bottle? I have never seen a florescent green drink bottle either...
@@micro2743 I can't speak on anything else, but...That's deffo a Mtn Dew bottle. They are florescent green.
@@jake360flip No, I have one in my hand right now and it is a dark green, but not florescent and much more transparent that the bottle in the video, which also seems to be the wrong shape, at least in America. The 2 liter bottle I am holding also weighs 5 grams, and would only produce about 6ft of 1.75 filament.
@@micro2743 the bottle is common in asian countries mnt dew here in the Philippines is also neon green. Its not flourescent. Trust me. Tried UV and dark already
@@micro2743 science
😵this is soooo cool he even guides us how to make everything from scrap via die description with multiple links showing u video by video how to make the tools required for this project
I do not know nothing of this 3d printers, but this idea is super eco friendly.
Thanks dear friend
That's actually quite impressive, i bought a filastruder and abs is actually quite easy to make but pla can be challenging as the size doesn't remain consistent. I have heard of people printing with HDPE before but I've never tried it myself. Is it easy to print with? Have heard that it's hard for the layers to stick.
Polyethylene printing's iffy. It's incredibly humidity-sensitive and adhesion/shrinkage will be devilish. Heated build volume almost mandatory, bed heater absolutely mandatory. Use a PVA bed-prep or even PVA-based hairspray on the printbed, with rafting.
Is a filastruder kit worth it for pla? i only use pla and pla+ right now because for what i print thats all i need and i would love to reuse the bits of supports and wasted prints rather thn throwing it out and i was going to save up to get one of those kits so is it a good idea to or look into something else?
@@jordannonnemaker1532 i honestly would not recommend it for pla unless you have a lot of patience. For abs it's great. I've tried a lot of different tips with pla from the online forum and so far none of them have have a consistent result for me . And from what i can tell none of the cheaper ones really can even the tempting $800 fefil evo claims it can but there are videos online of the same uniform problem with pla. Now the 3d evo seems to be able to and a lot of ppl online show good results with it but i think that is close to 8 thousand dollars. So i guess best bet is to just keep buying pla.
Fantastic idea with great execution! Well done! Thanks for taking the time to share the process with us. 😁
Glad you enjoyed it!The link of instructional videos for making filament making machine is available in the description section of this video (video number 1 to 8)
I've had this idea maybe 6 years ago, and since then I've tried to make filament out of water bottles, with little to no success. I was shredding the bottle and extruding the pieces through a hot end using a slowly spinning drill bit. Thickness consistency was the biggest challenge. Well done man! I did not think of cutting the bottle into a one continuous line. Next question would be, can you skip making a filament all together and print with that cut bottle? might need to make a different drive gear
@@mr3dp using that cut up bottle strip as a filament directly
Nice idea, Adapt the hot end and extruder.. tho this would only work for recycling plastic bottles.
@@mr3dp Hey mate. He was asking whether you can skip melting the bottle strip into filament and use the bottle strip directly to print from without having to make the filament. But if I were to guess you'd have to mod your printer for that. Interesting thought, as you've already made a nozzle/hotend that can melt the bottle strip into filament.
The solution to directly printing with the strips has been keeping me up at night. I'm working on a 3d pen that takes the raw strips.
@@Seymour-Butts_666 nah, make a whole side setup that takes bottles and feeds it into whatever makes it into strips lol
Proof of concept: DONE! :D
Makes me sleep better at night to know that soon I don't have to throw perfectly usable material away to get burned for energy or whatever!
It makes me happy to hear this
Simply excellent. Surprised with how well it printed too. Just some advice, printing even slower will give even better results. I would print at half that speed even with commercial bought filament. Plastic doesn't like to flow quickly. Brilliant process though truly. 👏👏👏👏👏
I like this idea but I have other questions.
1) Where did you obtain the 1.75mm nozzle or did you drill it out?
2) Do you have to maintain tension as you spool up the filament?
2) Do you have to cool any of it as it comes out?
3) Where did you acquire or do you have design for the reel system and firmware for the Arduino.
Really very cool. Would love to see this done with PLA as well especially with an auger that can crush and push small PLA fragments and pellets.
Thanks dear friend for writing your comment, read the pinned comment, your answer is there
@@mr3dp There is no pinned comment? Did you drill it by your self?
@@mr3dp there is no pinned comment
I was expecting that he would print a soda bottle in the end to go full circle
😆😆😂
I imagine the simplify guy watching this.
I was expecting that as well and would have died laughing
Are you planning a video on how you made your system?
Seeing how much a single bottle makes the profit margins on a roll of PET must be astronomical! Great video!
So true!
that is cool ,however there are some improvements to make
1) change up the spooling system and spool directly onto an easy to remove spool .
2) use the spool drive to pinch roll pull the strand thru the cutter that way you are only preparing the bottle on the stove and starting the cut .
3) figure out how to splice for much longer runs
4) work smarter not harder
genius strike there... use a nozzle to put the filament in the right diameter
can you upload a tutorial that teaches us how to build the extruder?
Thanks dear friend, be a little patient, because the time for the full video tutorial was long, it was decided to split the videos, but do not worry, we will discuss it in the next videos
The color is so cool. When I first time saw a bottle of something on a shop shelf I cought myself on a thought that I wanna buy it because the bottle color promised there is something delicious inside. Of course it turned out that there was nothing special..
Go for it!
Great video, and it's a process, but at 20-30 bucks a roll, totally worth it!
A really nice build,.I didn't know the channel, just a few questions :
1) what is the plastic of the bottle in the first place ? PET, PETG, PP ?
2) what temperature do you use for the extrusion ?
3) the extrusion block, is it the classical heater of a 3d printer, for which filament diameter ?
4) is the accuracy in the diameter of the filament good in the end ?
5) have you tried a PID regulation of the tension on the filament ? Different tension will end up in a different diameter in the end, in CNC kitchen's video about a comercial filament extruder, the nozzle have a 4mm hole and the filament get thinner afterwards because of tension.
6) what is the width of the initial ribbon of plastic before extrusion ?
7) last but not least, are theuy any fumes whem extruding and printing ?
Thanks a lot for sharing your work
Aren't they normally called pet bottles? By definition they're PET.
Carbonated drinks bottles are almost always PET, and indeed that's what he's using here.
If you read the description, the temperatures you ask for are there.
I can't make sense of the extrusion block. He has 3 sets of wiring attached. I would have thought just one for the heater and one for the thermistor. Not sure what the third set is about. Plus, the nozzle he extrudes through is a mystery. By rights, it should be 1.75mm. But I've never seen one that size. There are, unfortunately, no links to the cogs and wheels he uses for the extruder. That's a shame. It's still an interesting concept, though.
@@tasmedic you can drill a nozzle to any size, or just be lazy about changing nozzles: I've worn one out to where it was 1-1.3 mm in a weird figure 8 with the outside measuring 1.3mm and the pinched in size being 1mm, started life as either .4 or .5mm and slowly adjusted nozzle size to match in slicer until at that point I decided a $0.25 replacement nozzle was in order. I've also drilled out damaged ones that were smashed at the tip to 1mm and used for faster printing, and the bigger the hole the easier it is to drill so that's not a problem (I also drill out 1.75mm nozzles to 3mm for my other machine since those cost more).
Also nozzle mouth diameter != extruded filament diameter. Nozzle itself could be anywhere in the vicinity of 1.75mm.
Это просто ГЕНИАЛЬНО!
Можно напечатать пластиковую бутылку)))
how come there is no one manufacturing a machine that makes all this process?
there are bottles like this everywhere and also you contribute to the planet
I was surprised. You actually did what the video says. Happy.
Now,We need to find a way to automate this 👍
A proper tutorial explaining the different steps and also how to build the cutter and the melter would probably go viral and get many people who wanna know how to make recycled filament to watch your videos.
Are you going to make such a tutorial with explanations?
That will be nice, though there are many bottle strip rope tutorials on UA-cam and a few online demonstrating the different ways to make the strips. My only question regarding the strips is the optimal width mr3dprint found to cut the strips.
@@jafinch78 I would mostly be interested in the block he used to melt the strips into round filament.
Because regarding that thing I only found one other video using something similar, but that video was russian and also didn’t explain anything.
@@yourlocaltoad5102 Thinking if the block is 200-225, then a cost effective E3D V6 will be suitable since the extrusion temperature is low enough and well within that blocks temp range. Not sure why a 40A block would be required. Can save on the PSU and just use something like 10A's I'm guessing to power the controller board an all since the controller board, block and feed motor is all that is needed to be powered. No other 3D printer motors would be used.
@@jafinch78 well, the thing is that I have no idea how to regulate such a block, which nozzle to use or anything else like that.
So that’s why I would really like to see a proper tutorial on that (or maybe a written article, but I couldn’t even find something like that referring to a project like this).
Thanks dear friend, be a little patient, because the time for the full video tutorial was long, it was decided to split the videos, but do not worry, we will discuss it in the next videos
I could see this being good for large diameter nozzles where filament thickness isn't as crucial. Great for prototyping quickly at least.
worth sharing video... there is so much crap on internet and then u see this video and u feel so good!
Wow, thanks
Good job!
What's the purpose of the first two steps, pumping and heating up the bottle? Is that for drying the plastic or to get the appropriate thickness?
so the bottle won't melt quickly at the same time if you heat it too much, there are chances for the bottle to burst or get deformed and it depends on the material.
I would say it has more to do with the shape of the bottle before it is cut by that jig he has. The pressure puts force pushing towards the outside of the bottle, then spinning it over heat evenly reshapes the bottle.
@@mr3dp how did you manage to get 1.75mm nozzle, they're not common sizes?
@@Iraq3DP drill
I tried heating the bottle and found some more uses, 1. Removes dents in a bottle and reshapes it back, 2. dirt's are removed(happened when I heated the bottle loaded with air).
Wow this is very impressive way to go man! Going from bottle to part is not easy!
@@mr3dp you just gave me a solid reason to switch to an all metal hotend.
And people our here in the US still doing tide pod challenges you sir are a God amongst men 🙏
Recycling on a new level.
The part when u put the plastic through the nozzle to make the actual size of the filament...how did u do that? What temp tho? And how it's not getting squeeze on the process?...

Брат! -Ты волшебник! Любо-дорого видеть твои наработки!! Такое общение реально обогащает!!! Спасибо!!
Александр Пушкарёв
Спасибо, дорогой друг, за твою доброту и любовь ко мне.
Honest Rating of the concept:
Pros: Recycle and potentially a good engineering material for long term price.
Cons: Costly initial setup for motors and hotend to convert the plastic to filament and also the time consuming nature will turn a lot of people back.
Proposal: Have a quick and easy guide on how to make the tools to convert these into filament with even less steps. (This is a good proof of concept as of right now.)
Imagine making a bottle with a 3D printer…
Schematics plz?
Edit: this has been an idea in my head for years. The fillament from hdpe bottles and soda bottles. Never found the time nor space to make it happen
BEST VIDEO EVER!!! We need to recycle all those plastic bottles we consume.
You have great looking rugs and carpets in your house. I'm too poor to own a 3D printer, but i like your house decorations. 👍🏽

I saw a similar video on Reddit a while ago but with no ending result. It’s great to see the actual result of this and the great use 3D printing has with recycled materials.
Thanks dear friend
Thank you to those who invented this technology. It can reduce Plastic waste by recycling plastics. SAVE MOTHER EARTH
Clickbait is this you? How do you manage to have a steady 1.75 mm having into consideration that rolling the flat string to a constant and pretty solid filament with having any measure and control process is imposible,.don't lie 🤥🤥
No, it is not
Well, I'd call this more of a "demonstration" than a "tutorial" since a tutorial usually includes instructions... but it is pretty neat.
Just do me one favour, eh? Don't use a box cutter like that. Box cutter blades are designed to snap along the score lines on the side, and should never be extended so far that you can see the lines. If you need a long knife, get an actual long knife.
Meh, if you need a long knife but all you have at hand is a stanley knife, you use the stanley knife. If it snaps, it snaps.
This is not a tutorial video for making a filament machine This is a tutorial video for making a filament, of course we are currently recording a tutorial for making a filament making machine and we will publish it soon, do not worry, my goal is not to sell a filament, but a tutorial for making a fixture requires a video More that will be on the channel soon
A new definition of “easy” was set!
At the start i was thinking that its so easy ,
But at the end its amazing.
Thank u
Glad you liked it!
There was nowhere near enough plastic in that one bottle to make that lid. I have 3D print tons of s*** and I'm calling BS.
That's quiet the setup. Nicely done.
i don't even 3d print, but it's impossible not to see how genius is this
Thank you dear friend for your opinion, do not worry, soon I will teach you how to make a 3D printer with a bottle and you can make it too.
@@mr3dp ahahahah we have a deal!
Thank you for this new tool I will forever have the knowledge of.
Glad to hear it!
i have only jut found you and was thinking about doing something like this but did not know how to do it now this is amassing thanks
The link of instructional videos for making filament making machine is available in the description section of this video (video number 1 to 8)
Exactly the information I was looking for, before I buy a 3D printer. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
My friend you’re a genius👍🏽👍🏽
Awesome ! So much material ! True recycling
I need to get someone to build a set up like this. Ingenious for sure
Can I get a list of everything I need to build this so I can start making my own. 🤘
See attached videos in the description
Wow what an amazing idea! I can see that alot of your equipment is home made, you are a very very clever man. This is really up cycling, the possibilities are endless. Have to think of a way to convert the tops and bottoms of the bottles, into the same dimension filler?? Colour choice will also be amazing. An excellent way to reduce plastic waste. Well done that man!
Glad you liked it!
should call this channel the recyled bottle channel. :) love it!!
Wow, thanks!
very good sir , maybe a project for the winter months
This is what 3d printing should have been about from the first place, reducing waste.
Now this is some radical upcycling!!💚💙🌎
Now make Master Chief from Halo with that green!
