This was done to reduce the amount of plastic waste created within the build space, with the ultimate aim to tune the extruder to allow the production of filament from recycled from other waste plastic.- To repair and build an old 3D printer within the area to be used to test different self-produced filaments and experimental prints as to not break any of the other printers with more expensive and less replaceable part.
