Ever considered recycling botched print jobs of different colours to have a rainbow spool of material? Would be really great for artistic types or people who want to recycle or when the colour doesn't matter!

Hi Phototoxin,

Great suggestion. Do you mean we recycle printed models and make them as rainbow spool? I think the spool will be interesting because of their random colors. Will be artist's taste I think. From our standpoint, technology is not the problem. We can make them easy. The question is how to collect these printed model in economic way? If somebody has any suggestions please let us know.

Recycled material no longer has the full characters of original material. Although it can be used for artist work, it is not recommended for functioning parts. my 2 cents.

It is great to see your company contributing to society. Great.

Hi intservo,

Thanks for your comment.

Like you said, we do think recycled material is just suitable for artist work and it's a small way to reduce the environmental impact. But for functional purpose, it's better to use original materials.

RepRapper Tech only utilizes the original materials for production so that the filament has good mechanical and physical properties.

About this 5000 rolls donation, we just hope that we can help to popularize 3d printing among children and students. Anyone who wants to join our program can go to [www.reprappertech.com] for details.
