Sooo....
I went out and bought some crappy plastic. It isn't actually all that bad, but my printer with a .35 nozzle would clog occasionally, and strip occasionally, and it was driving me insane. I finally realized that it all started when I bought the ABS, so I switched filament and was happy again. To make things worse, I've since switched to 1.75mm filament, so I couldn't use it if I wanted to!
I bet someone out there may be printing with a bigger nozzle, or simply have a less finicky setup. Heck, even if someone was working on a recycler / filamentbot it would be better than the alternative. I would hate to see this go into the landfill.
If you are interested then leave me a post or a PM with any trade offers. I'm always interested in electronics, motors, and optics. Feel free to go out on a limb - anything is more useful to me than plastic I can't use.
