Have I Lost My Marbles? Marble Machine made of Free DIY Filament from PET Plastic Bottles!

This video shows how I take empty PET Plastic water bottles and process them into usable 3D filament. The process is called 'pultrusion' and begins by slicing the bottles into long strips whose width is determined by the thickness of the walls of the bottle. Thinner plastic will need wider strips and thicker plastic will need narrower strips. These strips are then pulled through a 'hot-end' by means of a geared box and take-up spool. As the strip passes through the nozzle of the hot-end it is heated, curled, and formed into a 1.65mm diameter filament. This filament can then be used on a standard 3D printer so long as it's able to heat the bed to 70C and the hot-end to 258-260C.
