Hello my friend. You have made a complete project in different videos and detailed. I think nothing is missing from that. Congratulations to you for your very remarkable work and your involvement. score: 20/20
Hello from Greece, you really made a great effort to apply the whole construction. and we all thank you for your effort. First of all, I would like a small detail, the distance of the pipe inside the spool, so that it fits properly in the whole construction. because you already have it prefabricated with acrylic as shown in the video. thanks again. from GREECE stelios
Hi Friend, mucho gracias for this very interesting videos.. Only one question, the quantity of the filament shown is clearely not enough to print the object at the end. How do you do to make longer filament ? do stick the cut bottles before the extruder or you stick the filament after and how. Thanks a lot in advance.
Can you possibly provide us with a cross-sectional cut photo of the plastic, after extrusion? I see a lot of these videos but somewhat doubt the results. It seems like it is more likely to just be bending the "flat string of bottle" into a "C" shape, with a gap still in the middle
You mentioned an interesting point, yes it is true because in this process the tape inside the extruder turns into a tube, which if you have reduced the width of the tape, it becomes U, we will talk more about it in the next video.
Keep in mind when printing as noted in the other videos comments and/or description... the thickness and width cut of the strips in relation to the size of the filament. Also, when printing mr3dprint noted he used a 1.5mm g-code setting when printing to accommodate for the air present. Wondering optimal settings itemized in a list again will be good info for users. I think the main optimization setting is when printing to not set your filament to 1.75mm and to a smaller size diameter.
this is amazing. thanks for ahowing us how. question for you: what is the rpm of the spool that pulls on the new extruded 1.75mm filament? i want to use different motor
So Impressive project and you did so much efforts for this.I really appreciate it!!! . Can u Plz make a Future Video on how to colour these filaments too. It will help alot.Thanks!!!
Wonderfull project. I wanted to make something similar time ago, but I hit with the problem to convert a band into a cilinder. My idea was an all-in-one machine from prepared bottle to printed object, including cutter, cutted band to cilinder and filament to extruder print. Do you think it will posible? Could the extruder of hotend printer (with some help) pull the filament thought all the process? Thanks a lot.
Its a good idea, but I think that filament retraction in final printing may be a problem. We need to thing about a mechanism to keep tension constant at the flat-to-round extruder while allowing the round-to-print extruder to make its normal retraction.
nice , i have one suggestion , how about attaching heating element to the bottle cutting blade , as the blade heatup it will cut the bottle easily , then filling bottle with air and rolling and heating it on stove step maybe can be skipped.
Hello i'm french. Congratulations for you project. I will be so happy if i manage to finish this gearbox. I Wonder if Arduino is absoltety necessary to drive the nema 17 motor? I know nothing about Arduino and i thought use a hot glue gun instead of the nozzle you used. Do you think it's possible ? I'm sorry for m'y pour english. Thanks by advance. Regards.
Hello! I have tried this and my plastic becomes a hollow tube than typical a full 'pipe' of plastic. Is it suppose to be hollow or do i need to make something smaller?
Thank you so much for all the answers - all electronics is working and there is left to make only Traction mechanism. Could you please share where to get the orange gear which is attached directly to motor?
@@makewithmegma How bad, it was very upsetting. Can you guide me and tell me what piece you can not make and what is expensive for you, I will try to find a solution for it
@@mr3dp im looking for solutions too but as always an other problem i got, my pc just stop working few days a go and now it's in repair so i don't think im gonna be make that, but I'll make that one day when i get job😄, I'll dm u on ig ok, we can talk there💕👍
This is a very interesting project and very cool as you an reuse all the plastic bottles in order to make some big project 3d printed.. but how you do you remove the humidity from the bottle in order to have a dry filament?
Neat to see the filament made with and without the heated bottle prep methods. I've seen some shrink the bottle and like you do pressurize than heat. So can make shrunk (thicker plastic), as-found and pressurized heated (thinner plastic) PET strips. Neat! Wondering if you've just heated to shrink the uneven shape bottles and have a preference?
I love you’re videos and so grateful for this tutorial! But one question: The links you have in description don’t lead to the tools, would you please update the links and guide us where to buy these tools to make this machine!! Thank you so much for your great work!!
Hi friend! Great job, you inspired me to try this project as well! I have a question: what is the total redution ratio of the gear mechanism? Is it 1 to 31? I'm not 100% sure... Tyvm
I think its missing the top part thingy that pulls the bottle down to the cutter. In your video is in yellow lemmon color, and has 2 big bearings. awesome projects, Im starting to gather the materials to make my own. Oh and the part where the filaments goes before the Heat Block.
Hello friend, congratulations on the great work, I'm putting together a project to make my pet filaments and I found your videos, the electronic part is ready and working, as for the mechanics, I'm not able to open the stl, can you make it available? thanks
great video .do the parts have to be a certain Distant away from each other or dosnt it matter.. and is the cord from like blinds thats on the puley wheel
Do you mean the distance between the gears? Yes, they should be somewhat distant. I also removed the rope that is around the spool from the curtain rope next to the window.
@@mr3dp the distance from the filement pully to the hot end and bottle line guide before it gos to hot end block is there a map were to drill everythink down to ..or do you space all parts ..thank you
Hi, thanks your sharing. It is a very friendly way to reuse these bottles and also can save money. I have a question. Do these bottles belong plastic symbol number one?
Friend, your results with the recycling filaments are great! Congratulations! It's motivating. I have an old anet a8 board and a larger anet a6 lcd and I think I'll upload your code. to know if there is a better speed adjustment. Or are you just going to work or adjust the speed of a normal printer?
The produced filaments are the same in terms of diameter, but they differ in terms of density, and this also depends on the thickness of the tape produced from the bottle. In any case, if the density is low, you can change it in the software settings and instead of 1. Change 75 to 1.5 or 1.6, this was not a problem for me
Hello, very good video, I follow you from Spain, what I did not understand is the software part in the previous video, it does not look good, please could you put the file ???? 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

why do you need to smooth the tape? And could I just regulate the power to the heating element rather than directly regulating temperature?

It takes a few degrees of heating to melt the PET bottle. After many attempts, the PET bottle line cannot be pulled out.
Neat to see the filament made with and without the heated bottle prep methods. I've seen some shrink the bottle and like you do pressurize than heat. So can make shrunk (thicker plastic), as-found and pressurized heated (thinner plastic) PET strips. Neat! Wondering if you've just heated to shrink the uneven shape bottles and have a preference?
