Precious Plastic - Create things from plastic (part 5.0)

[@martinvongrej3737]

This is the purpose of KZbin. To share ideas like this. It is even pleasure to watch and should it should be elementary project at High schools with focus on mechanical engineering so every school can recycle and create own stuff. This is more valuable than any music video on KZbin. Google should give you some special honnor.

[@leo.l.e3488]

I agree 100%👌

[@samlabo1688]

Actually you tube purpose is sell advertising. It has no specific guidelines

[@luvcykollie4163]

I am interested in this machine

[@hotrodroadking1031]

I am looking for blueprints for your machines and can't seem to find them

[@c.a.s.anphorachiclana7434]

Yo pienso lo mismo. Hace tiempo que no veia compartir ideas en youtube. Ahora solo se crea contenido para poner anuncios y cobrar.

[@OneArmyVideos]

Thanks for the kinds words everyone. And sorry for dumping these bluk of videos all at once on your timeline. Project launch today, do make sure to watch our promotion video, the most crucial one! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnuae42ZqNR7r6M

[@notsoren665]

+davehakkens Can you make a long video where you only see and hear the plastic getting grinded. It's oddly satisfying.

[@cxsey8587]

Next you should try and make a series about metal!

[@MartinCharles]

Can you please package and ship these machines as a product? You say all that you need for assembly is basic machine tools but most people including me (city dweller) don't have them or space for them. Great idea, stay awesome. I've been a subscriber since the early days and you always deliver amazing earth shattering content.

[@AxanarGaming]

+davehakkens Dave you have done great work but I need you to help us stupid Americans find our parts. Home Depot, Lowes, and Sears are the most common places to find these parts possibly. We all would still have to hunt down a machine shop. Which anymore is rare and expensive. Your idea is amazing but I have no welding skill nor is that just a cheap thing to up and start. Your looking at well over a $1,000 for a noob like me to even think about this.

[@darkcode99]

im in the middle of my own project, and once i get it perfected ill share. im using a liquid epoxy to make molds, and its high temperature resistance and strength should hold up to the injection molder you have built. i loved the nozzle idea and am borrowing it for my machine 😎

[@Antoniogut]

Man this is great. Seeing all these beautiful creations from our trash, you have inspired me and i hope you continue to inspire our younger generations.

[@luvenunes]

And I'm from brazil seeing this beautiful sign of evolution. Congratulations, this is a dream for cleaning the planet and generating work. Thanks a lot. I will try

[@tooopermanx569]

i want to cry when i see this videos, im not the only one who want to change the world, and to change people's point of view when it comes to waste, keep on making ideas like this

[@bakugosrage8976]

I am so glad that your channel exist. I am working with plastics on a larger scale and your videos are very informative.

[@Stephanie-is7bu]

I was just looking for plastic shredder and I came across with this beautiful channel and the finish products are so beautiful!

[@nycbankers1427]

This makes me want to become an engineer. I just graduated college but if I had the choice to start all over, I’ll choose a career in making cool stuff like this from recycled materials. Very inspirational 🙌🏻

[@janicedobis6490]

What you do is amazing!!! You are inspiring!! As a teacher, I will be sharing your channel with my students. Thank-you so much for helping us do something positive with an enormous problem. Blessings to you on your quest.

[@mulberryworkshop]

With the time that I spend in youtube watching people doing things it is kind of sad that I just have found you... Thanks for all the content! Really inspirational

[@amstudioprojects]

Inspirational and creative work.

[@dip20000]

Good job, you are inspiring a lot of people to inhale toxic fumes , and chemicals that are added to plastic for colors and flexibility.

[@razorsedgeunrama]

I'll 'like' this video just for the fact that you took the effort to show what different temperature does to Plastics, instead of just showing a diagram. It was good to see people go the extra mile

[@djetew]

Wow, brilliant ! I loved how you visually gone into melting every brick of plastic to a certain temperature ! Thanks for sharing

[@alfonsoarzube2924]

Thank you Dave, I´ll definitely do this in Ecuador. It will help a lot of people to find a source of income. We are having a hard time because of the oil crisis. I wish you a lot of success. Best Regards, Alfonso.

[@Kura63]

Hi Alfonso, Did you start something in Ecuador? I've just watched the video and thought I would like to do something in Ecuador where I've been living for the past five years! Let me know where your company is based. Thanks.

[@daniellopezbolanos9074]

Dave you're an inspiration, I'm starting to gather all the equipment to start a change here.. Again thanks from Colombia

[@albertbabu1185]

In Papua New Guinea, me and my brother has started our own, at this state, we are setting up drums for melting HDPE, LDPE, and PP plastics to make bowls, baby dishes, chopping board and more, we are much happy to share our pictures, all are built from scrapes and wastes. and it is first of its kind, i don't think anyone in my country is doing it, our main aim is to get rid of all plastic waste in our communities and help protect the environment.

[@mcorrade]

wow this is great. I had no idea there was such a huge community of plastic makers. I've always thought plastic is a great material and we waste so much in landfills that could be reused. Nicely done!

[@patfreesoul3931]

I did an experiment last night with HDPE. By cooling it down fast, "quench" like steel, I made it twice harder to cut and wear off. Which could be a good thing to mention, if you want your product to last longer bring it close to melting point then cooldown fast in water.

[@leo.l.e3488]

What an amazing person! Sharing his wisdom with others. More people like him will make our planet as a whole better for many generations to come. Much love!💖💐😊👌

This is probably the most brilliant video on recycling I've ever seen. Kudos. Absolutely awesome.

[@pedrorabay5800]

OHH MY GOD!!! I was thinking about improoving my sculpture tecniques in plastic!! I live in Brazil, and here we dont have to many plastic recicling stations. Our government does not give a s*#! about this. Im making a project about how can we use plastic as a material in sculptures and art tasks, and how can we make the methods accessible to any art class. If you have any file about how to assemble, and more information about what type of plastic to use and what are the possibilities with soda bottles for exemple!! thanks for you attencion.. you are awesome!!! I love what you learn and the way that you think that it has to be accessible to everybody!

[@alexanderSydneyOz]

what an amazing array of reference melted plastics! well done!!

[@iriniskevofilax2846]

These machines you have created are incredible! Precious Plastics has amazing potential to make use of unnecessary plastics! I can't wait to create projects with this:)

[@DannyCreech]

Love your video. Simple and easy to understand. I suggest you make building block bricks for building houses. Take the material, shred it and then blend it into bricks. Free material (trash) turning it into a house.

[@polillipolola]

I am watching this video from Ecuador, it seems great to be able to execute it here, I will be trying soon, thanks for sharing.

[@Fl0yd]

Dave, you are THE MAN! Congrats, you became source of inspiration for great things.

Creating new things from waste & Art from experiment, Brilliant 👊🏼

[@AmeeliaK]

This is awesome. As a kid, I often dreamed of having such a machine and having a little shop where I create all kinds of things from plastic waste. I always thought it was not possible, because - why hasn't anyone invented these machines before?

[@mehtabafsar1]

Comment section is filled with enthusiastic entrepreneur's !! Loved it

[@priscilxx]

OMG, i´m really shocked with your idea, i love it.... I´m from Ecuador, here we don't have recycling culture, so i´m really interested in share your idea and begin to do the same... Thanks for sharing your knowledge, because we need more people like you that are interested in the health of the world....

I find it interesting that in many applications the plastic is pressed together with the extruder rather than heated in a more direct manner.

[@LeonorSarmientoCamperos]

Really informative. Although it's unclear to me who does this at home, there are probably many makers around who enjoy and use these tips.

[@continent7]

I am 13 years old and in 7th grade. I have a plan to pick up all of the plastic from the ground at my school, then make rings and stuff to sell to show kids what you can do with litter. Wish me luck!

[@frantisekzverina473]

Wow that's awesome. I have some years of experience with industrial plastics injection, I never thought you could make it DIY as well. You should put that extruder vertically on a CNC frame and make a 3D printer thats using shredderd plastic!

This is revolutionary. What an amazing idea!

[@jacobbuxton932]

Amazing video, incredible idea for the chart

[@charlmarais2283]

Hey there this is a great initiative. Keep up the good work. The only concern I have is when it becomes widely adopted. I haven't seen in any of the videos thus far instruction to label the plastic with the recycling standard codes. Thus if everyone is re-using the plastics. we will hit a plateau where we have no idea which plastic is which. Binding this initiative. Please add in the importance to denote which plastic the items are made from for future recycling efforts.

[@charlmarais2283]

Ok so this is one of those moments when you say something stupid just as the music stops. Literally in the next video this is covered. Face Palm.

[@catherinekuang9390]

It's so exciting and inspiring to explore ideas like this! I and my classmates are currently working with the design of sustainable furnitures, how to utilize wastes generated by the community around us, and I think to use wasted plastics as raw materials for our furniture must be a perfect idea. But I have a question: when we heat the plastics, will there be toxic gas emissions which may still harm the environment?

[@bethanymann3634]

Hey Catherine! I don't know if you ever found an answer, but if you didn't they have a good video on safety and plastic fumes in the same playlist as this video! kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKTNZ6R-fbGspM0

[@TAnn-jx1ri]

Hi I was hoping that you could explain in terms of health and safety of these processes. Also if the plastic container was used to store chemicals is it safe to recycle after just washing it thoroughly? Thanks!

[@foreverofthestars4718]

you should build a personnel smelting system to melt down metals like aluminum and then use those metals to build the molds or anything else. That way you are not only recycling plastics but metals as well. Making your system all the more environmentally friendly.

[@hr.m885]

How its going?

[@surronzak8154]

yes because houses are made out of plastic obviously

[@vaelophisnyx9873]

@@surronzak8154 the first people to make a home of wood, brick, concrete, metal, etc all probably got this criticism. plastic is insanely strong in brick form. it's possible to make it fire resistant/retardant, and UV resistant. paint would make it close to UV immune, as well. you can mix in sand or rock and make a lighter alternative to concrete (not suitable for roads however). the biggest issues with plastic recycking for home building is picking the right one. you have to make sure it won't melt or soften in direct sunlight in absolute worst conditions (ie: unbroken sunlight for 24 hours). for interior use, it softer plastics are also viable, but for specific uses. like corner moulding or cabinet doors. I'd advise for harder plastics for counter tops however.

I doubt i'd ever get into doing this but there are a few things i'd love to make if i did: one idea you guys (or someone) might make use of is the frame work to canvases for painters (or easel stand). The normal material is wood.
