Filament welding
I have just seen this tool to weld filament.
http://www.fuseclamp.com/fuse_welding_filament_clamp-3/
The idea is nice but the cost seems steep for a quite simple function. Do any of you have your own trick to do that ?

That's hellishly expensive.
richrap experimented with welding filament quite a while back and built this. It requires a fair bit of manual dexterity but it's nowhere near 600 Euros.

Hello LamdaFF and 3dkarma.
Just write this post to solve your questions.
The price is 59€. Take a look at the Indiegogo campaign.
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/fuse-welding-filament-clamp-for-3d-printers/
If you can tell me where you have seen that costs 600 €, I contact them to correct it.
For inquiries, do not hesitate to ask me.
Regards

Hi
I developed a heating plier to weld plastics filament like : PLA, ABS, PVA, HIPS, Ninjaflex and other.
I can make O-ring with ninjaflex
What do you think about it ?

ludovic - can this join any two lengths of filament ?
I've never run out of filament while printing - I know what the model will weigh and how much filament is left on a roll :-)
But the ability to join up a bunch of shorter lengths would be really useful.
The price is good - if it'll definitely join shorter lengths of filament into longer ones - then yeah I'll definitely order one.
Haven't bought a gadget for a while now :-)
