More plastic shit to print more plastic shit into the world. I can only see this "changing" things in a negative way, at least environmentally. I hope this doesn't take off, unless it is able to actually counteract the way things are going with plastic right now



ABS and PLA are common plastics home desktop 3D printers use. PLA is widely known for being corn based, and PLA is recyclable at recycling plants. ABS can be melted more than once, and people are working on machines that can take your broken ABS parts, and remelt it back into plastic filament you can use for your 3D printer.


That's great to hear! When I wrote that comment, I had just been watched the VBS documentary on garbage island. Kind of bummed me out
