@@alexaether yep... You read my mind well, I was like those 'waste filaments' can be used with "3D" pens and voila you could make something useful or as fill-ins!
When yoy have enough of those, you're gonna throw it away though. Not knocking on the idea but that's like people who remake plastic bottles into decorations around the house. You're not recycling, you're just making garbage that looks kind of less ugly.
@@itsgonnabeanaurfromme it’s reusing, which is way better than throwing something away and going into a landfill or being recycled (both cause harm to environment)
@@Samuel.55 definitely don’t just iron without anything, that’s how you ruin your iron. I remember as a kid I had those pearler beads and one time I forgot to put parchment paper down. I realised immediately as a put the iron down but the beads stuck to it within a millisecond. Luckily it didn’t ruin the iron and my parents managed to get it all off. But it’s just gonna stick to the iron without anything in between.
Is that what those thingies were called?? I saw someone cutting chives and I thought hey it looks like those things but couldn’t explain what I meant lol
Oooh I bet a heat gun would work to melt the filaments just enough without them bubbling over, these are cute, I don’t even have a 3D printer but I kind of want one watching all these videos lol
I’m only watching repeatedly to learn about using leftover filament, not for cleavage, good sir! (I don’t have a 3D printer, I’m just really, really eager to learn.)
You just unlocked a memory lol. This reminds me of something I made back when I was a kid where we put tiny multi-colored beads into a metal frame with a cutout design, baked it, and when it melted it came out looking like stained glass. I don't know what you call that and I know it's not the same thing, but your video just reminded me of that.
Crazy good idea, I remember having a set like this as a kid but you'd put parchment on top of it and iron it, you could probably do this to get better results!
I don’t usually cut the filament when I change it, I just run the feeder gear in reverse and the filament end is almost always in good enough shape to be used again as is next print. Although, I’ll definitely keep this is kind for when I have filament breaks or when the spool is at a point that there isn’t enough left to actually print anything
maybe try with perler software, it's pretty easy to use and does let you scan the picture and only use the colours you choose, turning the picture into a "pixel art" map
I was thinking the same thing lol. Besides the risk of cutting themselves, I feel like kids would just cut a bunch of tiny pieces. Now you have a bunch of tiny little pieces all over the place. Depending on the kid they may put it in their mouths too. Definitely an adult or teenager activity in my opinion.. Just too many small pieces, and the sharp object for me.
You guys know there’s an actually arts or game for this and you can buy it somewhere, search up perler beads game or some Also this version might work (if you’re up to cut those for your kids) just use an iron and put a cookie sheet over it or whatever that’s called I used to do this art game in arts and crafts It’s really fun
Designs that use raw filament scraps are my favorite. So far I've tried hinges and snap latches. I really like how you can add some color that way without a multi material extruder. Next I want to try designing in grooves and filling them in with a 3D pen, and putting pony beads on filament pins on a printed frame to make an abacus or just for decoration.
We just got a 3D printer for Christmas, but we've been through so much since then that we haven't even had time to try it. You're videos are making us so excited to try. Thank you for sharing your talent and experience. 💖
I love your black pegboard! Then all the gorgeous tools! They are soo pretty. I remodeled my pole barn. All white. I even used dry erase board for every wall. It was super shiny and honestly cheap lol very cheap! It just had insulation and it needed some cute walls! I also put it carpet, 86 inch tv and 5 other tvs, leather sectional, vending machines, pool table, darts, Foosball, and tons of other cool stuff. It's gorgeous! Back to what I was saying lol we have TONS of tools and we ended up covering up the brown peg board because it just didn't match and we have an entire wall of storage and like 7 tool boxes. If I thought of painting the peg board black I totally would have done that! Looks gorgeous! Also I have a CAD certification and I've used 3d printers a lot in the classes. However one girl would hog the printer for weeks! Yes, weeks... so I rarely got to use it.
Could use them for filling in those prints. Not sure how well it can be done for 3d printing filaments but 3d pen filaments can be heated with an iron to smooth out or adding ends like these to fill areas
That is a great idea for the left over waste. I would assume you could also melt directly in to shapes or maybe a mold to make charms, beads, or jewelry
I like the rainbow one But for some reason the heart one is giving me the feeling some people get when they look at groups of holes I’m not even gonna attempt to spell out the name of whatever it’s called But this is a really cool thing to make! I don’t have a 3D printer so it’s kinda useless for me But I swear to god I’m gonna get one someday so maybe this will come in handy in a few years
Something to note if you use a toaster oven or normal oven, Once this is put in there you can't cook in that toaster oven due to the plastic toxins released into the oven then food if it's used for cooking agian
I was saving my filaments to re-compound with a screw extruder. But I don't have one and probably won't be able to get one any time soon. It's a nice idea though. This idea is more realistic though haha.
I cut mine into pellets and then collect them in jars. Later when I have the space and enough pieces I'm going to heat them up and press them into a sheet which I can cut stuff from
I thought you were gonna say you eat them 😭
I have 3 large boxes of waste filament that I plan to make into sheets at some point. I just need a reliable way to crush it all
@@LunarLotus184 *sounds of plastic beads and crunching*
@@LunarLotus184 yummy crunchy rainbow plastic mmmm
@@thewolf7668 yeah they’re the best X]
Dude these are like those beads that they would have us use in arts and crafts in elementary with the iron
perler beads? i used to love those. i’d make little minecraft figures with them 🤦🏼♀️😂
Hama beads? Almost, they're just missing the holes 😆
I HAVE A CONTAINER OF THESE IN MY CLOSET.
One could make some awesome articulated 3D creations with Perler Beads and filament like this
Exactly what I was thinking
Me without a 3d printer: wow this is really cool I'll do this!
One day. I’m in the same boat lol one day, I say.
how about a 3d pen those can be cheap
@@alexaether not really good for anything accurate
there are some fairly cheap 3d printers nowadays like an ender 3
Just buy pearler beads and do it with an iron. It's the same thing.
@@alexaether yep... You read my mind well, I was like those 'waste filaments' can be used with "3D" pens and voila you could make something useful or as fill-ins!
That's an amazing idea for the leftovers so they dont go to waste!
I really like your profile picture

@@itsgonnabeanaurfromme its creative recycling. Something your 4x4 imagination can't comprehend.
@@itsgonnabeanaurfromme Terrible take lol.
@@itsgonnabeanaurfromme it’s reusing, which is way better than throwing something away and going into a landfill or being recycled (both cause harm to environment)
I'd recommend trying an iron instead of the toaster oven he'll get more controlled melty results that way
he?
@@cathuman5463 they're probably talking to Greg
@@joshybratwurst1398 freaking GREG!!! Can Greg stop getting our irons caked with burnt plastic!!!!!
Put a layer of non stick baking paper between the plastic and iron and you won’t have plastic residue on your iron

I need this STL! Also, you could put parchment paper on top and squish with an iron!
Good idea... I have a cricut heat press, I'm going to try this with
An iron is a good idea. i was thinking a blowdryer but i think an iron is superior.
Maybe its faster and cheaper to lasecut it in 1/8” acrylic.
@@Kero7th heat gun
@@Kero7th a blow dryer might result in you blowing little bits of molten plastic all around where you’re working.
That’s such a good idea to save those leftovers! Great
I AM CROSS STICHING WHEN I SAW THIS SUCH A COINCIDENCE OR MAYBE ITS THE UA-cam ALGORITHM
This is like those perler beads I played with when I was little
Is that what those thingies were called?? I saw someone cutting chives and I thought hey it looks like those things but couldn’t explain what I meant lol
Thanks for answering one of life’s little mysterious questions haha 😁
Yeah, perler beads are just waste, this is going to be created anyway so we should use them instead
@@alexisericson241 I have heard that’s where perler beads came from, but since I’ve never used 3D printing before, I never saw it firsthand.
Keep your eyes up boys
My ears are blessed. Finally, someone with good audio!
Oooh I bet a heat gun would work to melt the filaments just enough without them bubbling over, these are cute, I don’t even have a 3D printer but I kind of want one watching all these videos lol

stop looking

Hama beads
Me who doesn’t have a 3d printer watching this anyway:🧍🏾♀️
This is so smart and looks so fun, thank you!!
I watched a guy splice his excess to use for later builds. They were so cool
I dont use filliment but I like your voice. Nice and soothing. Good idea though. I'll be sure to pass it. ♥️
Pro tip, use a bakingsheet and a clothing iron
why is nobody talking about her voice? oh my goodness! so good to listen to 🥺💖
That's amazing! Gotta love the ways to use every last bit
I could listen and watch this chick whole day. It's oddly satisfying.
Crazy good idea, I remember having a set like this as a kid but you'd put parchment on top of it and iron it, you could probably do this to get better results!
That's really smart!! Reminds me of perler beads but in a different form
That's awesome! I use mine in my 3D pen.
This is like those beads that were advertised from around 2009-2013 where you'd spray it and it would not fall out somehow
Wow her voice makes me so happy?? Like as soon as she spoke my day felt better
Ikr? It sounds so calming and professional
This is so cool!!! Time to get a 3D printer!!!!! 😎
Yo she's super chill, i can totally see myself vibing with her
Put parchment paper on top and then use a clothes iron. It would work much better
Love when artistic creativity is combined with mechanical and tech workmanship.
Your voice is so relaxing!! Also great idea!
Is she losing an aussie accent for an American one, or is her accent just southern? I can't tell.
@@Saohesc I don’t know- I’m very bad with accents... 😅
Love this idea
That's pretty dope. I will try that. I have about 2 years of waste filament I've been holding on to.
cool idea, maybe if ABS is used for the base and PLA for the pieces the melting could be more consistent
I wonder if instead of melting the filament in place could you glue them
You technically could use a hot iron
@@Slimboy025 true, you could also use hot glue because they’re usually made from polyamide/ nylon or Eva which are filaments as well.
Cleverage it was a type of trick to attract the viewers
Your voice is so calm i love it ♥

Ah thanks I startet thinking I am the only one doing it this way.
Her voice is so nice, i'd love an ASMR with her.
Mommy?
her voice is so soothing 😊
That's frickin genius. There are some cross-stitch and hook latch patterns I would like to try with this.
Oh, that's a great idea
Her voice is so satisfying and calming prove me wrong
The quality of this video wowww

Goodあいであ！
"would be a great craft for children."

I mean, define child. This would be fine for like 8 and up with supervision.
Your hair is wonderful!
I’m rewatching this for a couple of reasons…
No disrespect but You could have just zip up your hoodie 😅
Zip up ur jacket… 💀
A sheet of baking paper and an iron works as well if not better than the oven. It’s basically beads on a pegboard.
Her voice is so calming. ☺️
You guys know there’s an actually arts or game for this and you can buy it somewhere, search up perler beads game or some Also this version might work (if you’re up to cut those for your kids) just use an iron and put a cookie sheet over it or whatever that’s called

I wouldn't be surprised if someone came up with creating huge portrait art with it
I randomly stumbled but liked your enthusiasm
Holy shit. Great idea. Thank you!
Maybe try keeping butter paper on top and ironing over it. Worked for me with similar things
This looks so satisfying
That is amazing!!
That's actually pretty cool
I got no idea what this is doing in my recommended but I love how passionate she is about this! I can’t wait to check out your other content!
Finally a good solution to this. Thanks for sharing!
Reminds me of those plastic circles you would put on a grid and then with an iron and wax paper, you'd melt them.
I save it and use it as scrap plastic and melt it to hold my 3d print pieces together
Would make some neat coasters too!
These remind me of those colored fuzzy ropes with wires that made them bendable
You Are very creative!!😍😍
Reminded me of those crafts I used to watch as a kid
We just got a 3D printer for Christmas, but we've been through so much since then that we haven't even had time to try it. You're videos are making us so excited to try. Thank you for sharing your talent and experience. 💖

kinda looks like a mini mini pop it tbh
I didn't realise it was a heart until she mentioned valentine's day
Beautiful and easy, love it
You can sand the top layer so all the globules should be gone.
YOU HAVE BIG BRAIN /srs
That's kind of similar to the thing where you would put cylindrical beads on a board and then iron them together.
i think sandwiching between 2 pieces of glass might help it stay in its holes better.
Would be great if the manufacturer had a recycling options for you to send in the scraps, this way it doesn’t end up in the waste
I like the rainbow one
But for some reason the heart one is giving me the feeling some people get when they look at groups of holes
