There is nothing consumer about this extruder. "pro" is an understatement. It's built like a piece of factory production equipment that needs to run 7/24 for 20 years between servicing. Absolutely beautiful.

[mustafahalukyilmaz]

That is almost industrial. Really loved it. Extruder production companies will hate that :)

[paulbrouyere]

Thank you, I just sent your link to a 14 year old girl in Bangladesh who wanted to know how to recycle plastic waste. I told her to find a good mechanic. Really nice you made this open source so everybody can use it!

[TroubledTimes]

Definitely more of an overview then a how to but still interesting, never could find the plans on the site, downloaded a 650mb file but extracting showed tons of extracting errors.

[matusondrus]

I recommend you to add some thermal insulation to the extrusion barrel. BTW nice video, very well designed.

[jayjaytucker]

Just visited you GUYS PAGE DETAILED & ACCURATE WORK !!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

[celestialbeas]

I'll love to see how you guys machined the extrusion screw. Any plans to show how to machine that?

[janinepeck]

This is awesome, thank you for doing what you do! I have a list longer than my arm of all the things I want to make from recycled plastic, much to the skepticism of some family members :)

[manbobenterprises]

This is wonderful i wish these smart guys can put this in a bigger operation to help us, especially third world countries where only 1% of waste materials are re-used. plse get in touch with me

[Tizoc]

All you guys are so hepfull to all.
For the solutions and hope, thank you!

[mamadoudiop]

Wonderful...Great demonstration. You contribution to make the world a better place is sublime.

[danielboom]

You are a fantastic craftsman, congratulation, greetings from Colombia

[Innovativewayss]

I really much inspired to precious plastic and now i am thinking to make my own plastic injection molding machine according to this design, , , , thank you very much

[hiureanderson]

uow!! That was amazing! I'm suffering from the alignment of the base to the barrel, and now with this flange the project is much better!

[sohardtogetID]

Would be nice if you could show us how you made an I beam (@ 25:42) with is machine. I have been recycling EPS foam to make concrete slabs for my own uses and your videos gave me a new idea. Thanks and let's recycle.

[dgb]

Your engineering is outstanding as well as this video production, very clever well done

[Hartek-Extruder-Manufacturer]

Wonderful！ unbelievable you can make the machine by yourself.

[OneArmyVideos]

Hi. We've made starterkits to setup a fully equipped Extrusion workspace yourself.
You can DIY and make the machines or BUY a kit to make it easier.
Up to you, we are happy either way. More people recycling plastic! :)

[martintorres]

hey thanks a lot for share a good project! you guys maked a little best my morning
