i wanted to know if i could recycle HDPE (milk bottle) at home
so i made a ghetto hot end with a solder iron, clamped a CO2 cartidge on it
it finaly melt and i got 5 mm of rough and strong filament by pressing with a piston tool
i need a mechanical process to get a regular filament
i can make pellets again with it for the moment :)
i'll also need more heat to make the hdpe more fluid and make the extrusion smoother
and maybe some insulation on the hot end
thanks for watching
