How to Re-Shape Used Plastic Bottles at Home, |DIY |

When air is heated it tends to expand, Here I have tried to re-shape some squeezed plastic bottles using a drill machine and a heat gun, by pumping air inside the bottles.

Pumps it fatter. Use heat to smooth out and remove lines. Very useful for people who use bottles in crafts. Can be cut into sheets with no misshapen bumps or whatever you need it for. Very useful for people who came here knowing why they did.

[@johnayap6861]

wow.. a big thank you for this.. now I can use the entire bottle for a 3d printing filament from plastic bottle splicing with more utilization of the material...

[@Arbiter1223]

Despite all the negative comments I've read, this has the potential to GREATLY help in creating PET 3D printing filament. I've seen videos where people cut plastic bottles into long strips and have those strips pulled through an extruder, folding the plastic into a circular shape and making good filament. The problem is that without shaping the bottle, the uneven surface of the bottle leads to variations in the width of strips. This leads to inconsistent filament diameter and thickness, which in turn will certainly lead to under extrusion during printing and many failed prints. By making the surface of the bottle more uniform as shown here, most of the bottle can be reliably used versus only the part under the label in the case of a coke bottle. And the problem with boiling water is it's probably less efficient if you're needing to form a LOT of bottles (and one bottle only can make a few grams of filament, which would run out very quickly). So this definitely has some MAJOR potential in the area of 3D printing.

Boiling water actually works better, ensures even heating whereas here if you leave the heatgun on one portion too long you end up melting only that particular spot and causing it to expand more than the rest and it becomes thinner. Boiling water is guaranteed to hit it all evenly and its easier to time the duration to ensure all bottles get the same treatment, you can see how much the bottles expanded here and if you try this with multiple bottles I can guarantee some will be more puffed up than others and the more puffed they are the thinner the walls get, bad for consistency...

I can believe i wasted 3 precious minutes of my life watching that!

[@timsmith3013]

😂 I was thinking the same thing and I stopped at two

[@ashashraa6579]

I saw your comment before watching the video and I didn't watch it. Thank you.

[@sebastiannovello5636]

what's the purpose of that please explain

[@mcshawnboy]

YEAH! It's not even like the typical plastic bottle video where they have endless Shrader air valves and make a huge amount of bottles hooked together by plastic tubes to make an air supply for some tool like a blowgun, but they can't cut the head off of an old refrigerant bottle that can hold 100s of pounds more air and you can put it in your vehicle if you need air. I was surprised I'd been a Subscriber, but I ended it!

[@columbia409saltlake]

wow you made a plastic bottle still look like a plastic bottle,NASA will be in touch soon

[@ashwynn4177]

This guy's got way too much free time in his life!

[@ralphsmith8350]

Good start for custom bottles and other plastic work. _I_ like it!

[@letsbefrank1936]

You need to find some friends.

[@wattwaster5936]

I was hoping you would show a bit more about shaping plastic beverage bottles so people would have some idea to build on. All I saw this time was the plastic can be heat formed smaller, or with air pressure, larger. I have seen the same sort of thing before, but something was made, like an RC airplane models canopy, or crawling. Haven't seen anyone do this yet for wheel pants, or something like that, but one thing needed is how to glue formed parts together, or weld them with some of those fancy heat guns for plastic. I have a plastic welding kit, but nothing practical so far. Have seen some toy submarines made from plastic bottles, but not much on shaping the plastic. Hoping you will do more with this since there are so many of these plastic bottles used once and becoming trash.

[@Inventor101]

Amazing idea 👍😀

[@colleenangell1569]

Would you be able to turn it into a balloon by heating it up and adding air? I think that would be amazing for some craft ideas

[@bindiberry6280]

Nice idea in deed! After cutting the plastic bottle cylinder open, how about using a hot iron for pressing clothes and parchment or wax paper to press the plastic flat?

[@410kane]

Or fill with water and put in the freezer

[@thekatt...]

The energy you used to "reshape" ...kinda defeats the purpose of reduce.

[@JojonathanOliveira]

This look interesting but, no offense, I can't figure out why someone would want to do that. I thought maybe you wanna stretch the bottles to make them longer using heat, but it appears heat has the opposite effect and even that didn't enlight me on any application of your methods, so what exactly are the application of this craft?

[@jerrywhidby.]

Model airplane canope

[@bindiberry6280]

How much pressure may this bottle withstand? How about adding a release valve and long vinyl spraying hose to clean up dust hiding on electronics and some hard to reach corners?!!

[@jolteon_03]

Maybe this works to make a transparent visor for my cosplay idk

[@riderbill5339]

What's the pressure (in psig)? How far have you stretched PETE (ratio of final L*D / original L*D)? Have you ever had a bottle burst? How hot/what pressure? How loud was the bang? Did it throw plastic fragments? Where they hot?

[@ShopeeMarketteam]

yea

[@wrybread]

And if you keep going farther? What happens after 10 mins of that???

[@FerdyAb]

Good Job,, very very cool... Nice

[@7MinutesCreative]

*_Amazing idea bro_* 👍❤👍

[@youngdiy489]

Thanks for watching bro,

[@denvas9551]

This is probably for balance in the universe. If someone bends the bottles, then someone must straighten them.

[@notthatdigusted7468]

Can you keep the inflated bottle's shape without adding heat?

[@mcshawnboy]

He sure did change that contour Coke bottle, but I don't think that it's possible to increase the volume of bottle without recasting it. If you do want to do something constructive with the media look at a network of people who are trying to make use of waste plastic, Precious Plastic. I'm going to leave some space as I don't know if KZbin is cool with links, so take out the spaces! Wow! The blue hyperlink takes you directly to the same website that explains how you can make a profit from recycling and making useful products for your community! What could be wrong with that?

@@mcshawnboy Thanks, Shawn ... THAT was the kind of information I was searching for!

[@allanlarmour7460]

Or, you could just fill the bottle with warm water. But WHY? You must be bored.

[@xanthuumnihyr5319]

He wants to deform bottles not just temporary inflate them

[@mcshawnboy]

@@xanthuumnihyr5319 Try getting glass bottles and a torch to reshape them and you'll see that kind of thing at every outdoor fair the world over filled with bright colors of liquid and some people even collect them. You are just playing with trash!

[@MrSozcumber]

And point of this is?

[@jomten]

Making rope from soda bottles, the ridges/bumps in soda bottles makes the rope much harder to make & inconsistent

[@royluttrell9609]

I have to admit, i am seriously underwhelmed by this video

[@notthatdigusted7468]

Does this also work with a basketball pump?

[@BoniaDIY]

We love it 👌👌👌

[@prabakaranp8655]

super 👍👍👍

[@f.s.h.g.9763]

would you happen to know if the plastic can be reshaped without having filled it with air? i don't have a pump but i have a drill and a stove. serious question. and thank you :D God bless.

[@alfredojones7607]

No entiendo la finalidad de enderezar la botellas y después las tiró o para que sirven.

[@mickeymouse1300]

Is it dangerous?

[@Streamcatcher]

Can you also create new shapes?

[@smartcreative6490]

So nice

[@andrelegris998]

F**k of a lot of work just to re-shape a plastic bottle. Can do the same thing by pouring warm water in the bottle.

[@tipakmoyong2006]

Nice trick.

[@4doors_m0r3wh0r3s]

Not to be that guy but if you fill a bottle with boiling water the same thing happens :)

[@lancepellman7022]

Sometimes we need "that guy". You are he. And he is you. Own it.

awesome bro

[@joaoguedesmartinsmartins]

Muito boom esse cistema de alizar as pet

[@krayzkev]

Susspose if you filled enough bottles when the air runs out we blame you….

[@zx_vlogs2]

Nice bro

[@youngdiy489]

thanks for watching bro,

[@wilhelmgradyang3606]

Actually you dont need air pump just put water inside bottle, heat water and pour hot water to bottle it makes hot air inside without using air pump and can smoothen pet bottles test out on different bottles if it can smoothen it make sure to have a metal container to pour the water so you can conserve the heat.

[@jaykay1144]

little bit of water then lid,then in the microwave for a couple second...boom done

[@rb.867]

Seriously, compressed air does the same thing

[@ColinClarke-pb8ee]

for the love of God...WHY? if you really want it back to it's shape fill it with water. put the cap on. Squeeze hard. open cap and fill with more water and repeat. Why re invent the wheel?

[@annahamilton6141]
