Let me know if anyone's interested and perhaps we could organise a little meetup to chat through / share ideas - We've also got open organisation of it all. I'll probably visit again soon/ join as well as have some other projects I fancy making.

Main issue is that even the home semi pro types it is recommended that the filament is run through twice for best results. It is quite an industrial process.
An actual extruder is quite simple, the results perhaps not so. Worthwhile ones are 600gbp.
Cheaper and easier, at the time to find a high vfm supplier pla.
More cost and time effective.

Not sure if this helps but the T100A4 in the surplus section here might work: https://www.motioncontrolproducts.co.uk/products/34/102/ac-induction-motors/
Hi Andy,
I wonder if we could possibly do some plastic grinding at rLab soon please?
I have a significant amount of waste PLA that I hope to recycle, and it would be brilliant to at least find out what the effort and timescales are to grind this to a manageable quantity…
Cheers
Alex
Actually, having not done anything on my plastic shredder for the last couple of months, I've just gone back to it to finish off some safety features. Like an interlocked door over the hopper which I think will be important if I want to take it to repair cafés etc., not sure I'll have this finished for the next one (next Sun?) but I can bring the machine to rLab one evening this week. When is good?I've also got some commercial grade polypropylene injection moulding pellets I'd like to try in the thermoforming centre. Emma if you're around I can demonstrate the vacuum forming too?
