Need to grind your plastic down for an exruder?

I have to agree with that.

I third that. I just wish that some of the filament makers could somehow formulate a filament that uses recycled material. It could effectly be cheap and desirable to purchase.

Are you sure that isn't already happening? I have no idea but assumed that many of them mixed in a small amount of reprocessed scrap. I have no knowledge either way and am just asking. From what I understand if you are extruding your own filament you need to use a little bit of virgin filament so that yours has good properties. I don't know how much virgin you add to get it to the specs of purely virgin filament, but would like to if anyone knows.
