ABS is the same, my mailbox clasp already came apart after about 6 months. UV really degrades plastic.
400yrs poster is a useful idiot.
Well, I am talking about complete decomposition in enviroment and it takes hundreds of years... You are right, it may be seriously damaged after only few months - but even after decades, there are small plastics pieces remaining. And this is ev

How is plastic bad for the environment, unless you toss it in the ocean?
Well, it tooks about 400 - 1000 years to decompose. And there is stil more and more of plastics in enviroment - it is also "poisoning" the enviroment for animals.
Look at this - if you are brave enough:

Thank you guys for your feedback. As you mentioned the Filastruder, this is "only" the extruder. You have to prepare a pellets somehow and also you have to buy the winder separately - thus the resultin price is much higher.
I am thinking about (and also working on prototypes already) complete solution - it includes:
Grinder - to destroy old prints into a small pieces
Extruder - to make a filame

Ahoj, chtěl bych se zeptat, jestli jste někdy zkoušeli recyklovat staré výtisky zpět na filament? Případně vlastní výrobu filamentu? Na trhu je několik řešení, ale většina z nich mi připadá buďto drahá, nebo ne úplně spolehlivá...
Případně, kdyby bylo k dispozici nějaké šikovné řešení za rozumnou cenu, zda byste o tom uvažovali?
Díky
