I've found it easier rather than bothering with any shredding or doing the initial melt in the oven to just do a pass over the bags with a heat gun or a high pass with a blow torch. The plastic will do a partial melt and shrink in on itself, but will cool very quickly so that it can be safely handled sooner. Do this for a few of them and you'll end up with small, compressed nuggets of plastic that take up a lot less volume, so you can pack them in to your mold for a longer melt to fully liquefy and unify them together. Other advantage in my experience is that you're much less likely to get air bubbles this way.

Is Brilliant ide, nice to meet you and how are you? i hope Will many people be like you, who can recycle plastic would be art. Reducing garbage. I'm a painter and i am using recycle plastic for my painting also. Here in my country so many trash, and i have project about environtmen, educational and Art. Happy watching your process and keep spirit to make better environtmen. I learned lot from you. Big regard from Indonesia.

thank you for your video. I am a hobby potter / ceramist and so far I have figured out how to make some artistic or functional use of all my ceramic waste (clay, oxides, etc...) except for of course, plastic. Now having been empowered by this video, I can do some experimentation on melting down a large cache of plastic I have been saving up just in case I figure out what to do with it. Well, I just did :)

I got inspired from watching this video and decided to try melting some bags myself. I bought a 2" pipe nipple and two threaded caps. Screwed one cap on the nipple, stuffed the pipe nipple with plastic bags then screwed the other cap on. Placed the assembly into a fire I got going in my fire pit and the pipe turned orange. The next morning when the assemble was cool, I unscrewed the cap on one end and to my disappointment there was nothing inside except a little ash. I couldn't believe that all that plastic disintegrated so completely.

Thanks for the video. Would be great to figure out a way to turn plastic bags into plastic counter tops. There is more than 1,000,000 tons of plastic bags sitting in a pile nicely sorted just outside of Jakarta, Indonesia if anyone wants it. The government pays workers to sort and pile them up, just in case one day someone figures out what to do with all of them.

I'll never have the knowledge or motivation to do this myself, but I love watching your precious plastic series anyway! I think you should make and sell finished products with this. Cut the cubes into tiles and assemble them into a backsplash, make a table out of this, etc. Then make videos that are dedicated just to the finished products! It's a good way to get people excited about this idea, and that will make this project grow faster, I think.

I really do think the most effective use for these techniques is to make blocks like this or more rectangular stock which can then be cut/machines into actual useful items rather than just art objects. It would maybe be worth while approaching one of the many machinist type youtubers and offer to send them some of this recycled plastic stock to have them turn your blanks into something interesting.

Excellent tutorial. I've learned so many great tips from your group, which I've applied to my own plastic recycling. I just wanted to offer a cautionary remark. It can be quite dangerous to run material under 30cm in length through a jointer (what you called a thickness planer). My worst shop related injuries (plural) were incurred by doing just that. If you must do this (but don't) at least use a push blocks.

Very good instruction! The only question is whether the temperature was 200 deg. F or 200 deg C. Since the melting point of HDPE is 130 C (266 F), and auto-ignition occurs at about 300 C (572 F) it is open to question. Just need to experiment with a fire extinguisher handy.

Guys...think about this... if you make a few cubes like these a day, just a few, just think of how soon youd have enough material to build a home. Instead of working your butt off and putting money away, treating this like an art project/meditation moment, you'd not only end up with a pretty much a free home but also a sane mind. And look how many people we could inspire to do the same. Why do we pay 50 million dollars to build a massive project if we have the resources everywhere... I wish I could find a group of people who are passionate enough to go through this with me. Imagine all the possibilities if we only got together as a community.

But so much potential for the community unity to grow, too, that to me is inspiring. To see people working together, driven by one shared passion.

Send me links to videos or events that are showing ways to either reuse material or unify people by cleaning up their communities like you mentioned or any ideas you have yourself. I've been passionate about this for as long as I can remember. It goes hand in hand with my passion for wildlife (or just animals, reptiles, etc domesticated or wild). When I was about 6, in school, I "invented" more so created, a public trash can with three openings for separating materials, not much of a huge creation but it shows you how long I've been trying to develop a way to solve our problem. (I ended up seeing, 12 years later, the same trash can being used in Coconut Creek here in Florida, I was so excited!) But I've also invented the catalytic converter for a science project, only to find out it was already invented as the catalytic converter.(mine was a little different, just same concept) and my dream is to figure out how to store the electricity from lightning and use it but I'm a little weary to go to school for engineering because my attention span isn't the greatest and having to learn the physics behind just an idea that might not even work, and pay all that money for tuition...ehh...might not be for me. I just finished building my greenhouse out of plastic bottles. It's around 770 bottles. You take the bottle, cut the top and bottom off to where you only have the place where the label was and you cut that in half, flip one side over, staple them together and do this to make shingles or sheets for walls. Look up plastic bottle shingles if your curious, they make good roofs for dog houses or chicken coops, even sheds. I've done plenty of things just for myself, I built a retaining wall out of tires at the bank of my lake to raise the land to one day build a dock out of pallets. I would love to find a group of people passionate like me that we can feed off each other to learn more ways of reusing our waste to develop structures. Like the guy who built his own floating private island out of trash (KZbin that if you've never seen it). We have laws in place that make this stuff illegal though. Like collecting rain water. Look up Mother Ships (I think that's what they are called) look up Mother Ships Made out of trash or something like that. These beautiful homes are illegal to build but they are all made out of trash. In highschool, I found out that the recycling bins were dumped into the regular trash. I called the school board and they said they didn't have the funds to recycle. I called 3 different departments and asked how to get this talked about and basically got laughed at. One person can make a difference but when more people are fighting for change, things can get done. I want to do more than just reuse my waste for crafts or yard renovations. We have Congress proposing to tax us for the miles we drive with the carbon tax, and other stuff with this green new deal, but they can't even get our recyclables to be processed here in the US, we ship it to China! Our streets are covered in litter and there are protests for women's rights and they leave the signs behind. Why not march and pick up trash instead of yelling about climate change while littering in the process? I will never trust a politician fighting against "climate change" that doesn't do anything but want to raise taxes. Ugh, it just bothers me. My state, Florida..our waters are becoming so toxic and we haven't taken advantage of our sun for energy. There has to be a way to shift the conversation and start talking about reusing what we already have to save money and clean our environment... There is so much we could do if they changed the laws. They don't want us to be able to use our trash though or collect rain water or anything of that nature(pun intended). They can't keep their funders happy that way. But if we develop great ideas that work and prove them, advertise them, and fight for them to be legal they will have no choice but to allow it because then their "fight against climate change" is proven to be nothing more than a way to tax us and control us even more by limiting the amount of driving we can do, water we can use, electricity, etc. I just want people to stop and realize the possibilities. I just wish more people cared.

It would be awesome to make these kind of blow up creatures for Holliday's like Halloween and Christmas. Cutting patterns and welding sheets together using an iron I guess. I love the idea of making things from what would normally be trash. Ive always wanted to know if you can mix high density polt ethane with log density. For instance mixing plastic bags with milk jugs or coffee ground jugs. Where I work I can often get old bottles and I tend to hold random plastics always with the hopes of doing something cool with them and I just need something really cool to do with them.

Place other cut up plastic on top of melting bags. Place another layer of bags on top of this plastic. Place black metal lid on top of mold. Hit with lenses to melt top plastic bags. Let cool. Will this make decent pickets? They don't have to be perfect.

Could you lightly oil the surface of the bowl before you place the plastic in the bowl? So when you take it out and scrap it all together, it will slide off of the sides of the bowl. Or would the oil have a negative effect of anything?

this process inspired me alot! do you worry with the very small pieces though that breakaway during the sanding, polishing, and grinding process? isnt that micro plastics, how do you make sure those small pieces are still recycled as well. thank you!

I think you could use a vacuum cleaner after finishing each phase of the manufacturing process. That way, you would end up collecting those microplastics and then emptying them into a container for later use.

Please 'Don't' ever use a planing machine like this, planing machines are probably one of the most dangerous wood working machines to use 'Wrongly' and without guarding, very short sections like that cube can easily catch and drag tightly gripping fingers and hands into the Planers cutters. I have seen it happen and I have heard of many other horrific stories. Mike Harvey

my grandfather lost the tips of his fingers to a jointer. it would definitely be safer to make longer pieces, and with guards in place, while using push blocks. but i wonder, how fast it dulls jointer blades?

Any kind of blades will become dull from either one of two things. Excessive heat generated, or a substance that is equal to or greater in hardness than the blade.

@Recklemus 6 жыл бұрын
You could but the mold, type of plastic and amounts used would need to be precise for it to function properly then you could sand each blade to specifications without excess waste. Though, any waste mostly can be re used in future projects.

I really love that cube. It looks like a rock even though it's plastic. I gotta tell you that I'm starting to recycle plastic now! Mostly for plastic project boxes and also recycle some of it. Also I'm gonna sort it by the type and then by color which then I'm gonna recycle, then shred it to pieces and extrude into molds of boxes and more!!!!!! I'm the first person that's beggining to recycle plastic at home in Slovakia!!!! (but first I have to get a shredder and an extruder)

Which part of Slovakia are you from? I'd like to do something similar as well. I found the KZbin channel and website of Precious Plastic about one week ago, after reading an article on the internet version of the newspaper SME. However I think you/I are not the first in Slovakia. If you look at the map on the Precious Plastic website you can see that more people have the same idea. But that does not really matter. There is so much plastic waste, thousands of people are necessary to get rid of it all.

This is fantastic. Really love what you have done here. You took a great deal of time and thought to put this together. Not to mention all the work that went into coming up with the idea. Would sugest that you mention what grit sandpaper, grinding and type of polishing wheel you used. Would you consider how you might make a one solid table top for something like that? Obviously the oven could limit your ability of size, along with the planer. Instead of the bowl what about making a larger square mold that fits into the oven?
