Turn PET#1 Plastic bottles into 3D Filament with
The Recreator 3D: a DIY 3D Printed Build Kit;

with the idea to 
salvage older 3D Printers from e-waste
and give them a new form of life,
as a PET#1 Pultrusion Unit!


A viable DIY recycled solution for
high temp filament 
that is both weather and heat
resistant!

A great competitor to commercially 
manufactured high grade filaments.

Josh of JRT3D.com and @aceganghub will be at 3DPrintopia 2024

With Ace's enthusiastic approach toward The Recreator3D project, he ran our table as Project Ambassador at MRRF2024.

We're pleased to have him at the table among the event to help inform people about the awesomeness that is PET1 Pultrusion with Recreator3D!

Josh and Ace are excited to see everyone and ready to answer all you PET1 Pultrusion and Recycling questions!

This past summer Ace hosted the Recreator table as Project Ambassador for MRRF2024.

While there he and other Recreator members showed off new projects coming out of the Recreator community.

Ace’s specific focus was what makers can do with PET once they make it. On his channel he has made VTuber related cosplay models and printed a few in ReCreator PET to showcase the strengths of printing cosplay pieces out of PET.

Ace has made updated pieces set to debut at 3DPrintopia this year!




HAPPY RECREATING!

In January 2022, I wrote into MAKE Magazine
about PET Pultrusion and The Recreator 3D.

To much delight, I heard back in October after ERRF2022!

I was asked to write a paragraph or two
and that turned into many pages later.

I’m wasn't 100% sure how it would “unfold”, but was told to keep an eye out in the future!

FASTWORD to March 2024
