Strooder, New Filament Extruder Project

[Strooder]

Wait... What?


I pitched the idea of backing this to my school and told them one inch...
That was the deciding factor. I can't get them to agree to back this for $333 unless we can recycle our plastic.

Nobody is going to sit down and grind huge chunks of plastic into pieces that small...

Hi,

Sorry to hear your confusion. As mentioned above, it is guaranteed that 5mm can be fed into the tube and be successfully extruded. We are continuing our testing of up to an inch and it is looking hopeful that this will be a possibility.
This is also why a grinder is a future development for Strooder so that the process time can be reduced.
