Inspiration
To Reduce and Reuse and Recycle Plastic Bags in a new way.
What it does
EcoCraft uses plastic bags again by giving them new life as 3D printable material.
How I built it
Mock ups, building primitive compactors, using ovens and molds to melt.
Challenges I ran into
Melting different materials, their melting points and burning points.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We are now more aware of the Problem of Plastic Bags and How difficult the recycling challenge is.
What I learned
HDPE has an average melting point of 275 F
What's next for EcoCraft
The next stage is to continue building a business model and help make it sustainable.
