I Turned Plastic Water Bottles Into 3D Printer Filament | The Full Journey | 🖨️💦🐢 It took me 3 months, but I successfully turned plastic water bottles into filament for my 3D printer. This journey was more difficult that I originally anticipated. It came equipped with a ton of trial and ERROR moments, and many trials and tribulations until I actually made filament from plastic. This is the most epic form of recycling, and probably the coolest thing I have ever done in my life. The full version can be found on my YouTube, Snapchat, and/or Facebook page! So, please enjoy this journey, comment what I should print first, and let me know if you have any questions, as I am happy to answer and assist in your filament maker journey. Thank you so much for being part of this process. Thank you for believing in me, for supporting me, and for enjoying the journey along the way. I’ve got big ideas for what we’ll do with all these water bottles…..so if you’ve got any big ideas too, just comment or DM me!! This is definitely something you can do at home, and I am excited to see how many of us we can get to the ultimate level of sustainability. Thank you so much again for watching my channel this week. I love you so much. See you next week! 🖨️ TIMESTAMP: 00:00 - 00:49 - Preparing Water Bottles: Cutting Strips & Extruding Setup. 00:49 - 02:53 Extrusion Experiment: Guiding Strips Through the Machine’s Nozzle. 02:53 - 05:48 Machine Breakdown: Identifying & Fixing Issues. 05:48 - 07:05 Machine Building: What Is This Machine Called & How Can I Built It At Home?. 07:05 - 08:30 Machine Repairs: Securing Wires & Resolving Issues. 08:30 - 10:01 Nozzle Preparation: How To Get The Nozzle Ready For Pultrusion. 10:01 - 13:25 Filament Creation: Temperature Sweet Spot & Melting Process. 13:25 - 15:25 Pultrusion Success: Transforming Water Bottles Into Filament. 15:25 - 17:20 Print Attempt: 3D Printing With Water Bottle Filament (PET). #howtowithjessie #sustainability #plastic #waste
