Making your own plastic extruder is bloody impressive. Looks like hdpe makes a much less bendy post. So many things to consider. Mould injection pressure, additives like UV stabilisers, fire retardants. I'll be looking at a machine to use some of the energy from my 30kW of solar, when the grid feed in drops to 1/5 in 2028.

Great effort. Thanks for sharing
I was thinking something like this but coat rebar or something to make an insulated cheap post.
Meh! Buying insulators for the rebar would be more economical of time & resources
@@willbass2869 so would buying posts lol
Thought about it but I don’t like the idea of having a ground rod inside my post.
@@farmtoughtrue thats the reason i havent bought pig tail posts. But i think i like it better than the little screw on insulators on rebar.
