plastic recycling v0.01



collecting building materials. Mostly polypropelene in this example I needed flat sheets and there were only so many lids of such and such color so I cut up the container walls and flattend them with a clothes iron.


a laminated stack of 5 sheets + a template with spray adhesive


I cut them out on the band saw. This was particular piece was rejected because I cut out too much material. In the future I keep enough buffer around the lines and sand it to shape with a Dremel tool.
