Hi All,
Here is a pic of the wax comb we made together with Colombo Design Studio here in Sri Lanka. You can find a post on the news section about it as well with how the mould was made. It also links to the blogpost on Colombodesignstudio.com. Great way to make the mould.
I posted a few tweaks on “machine develoment” i think could be usefull for you out there working on the injection machine.
Happy making.
Cheers,
Henry

Awesome work @riceandcarry!
This is a great idea! Really clean execution, too.
Thinking about making fins here in Australia.
We should keep this thread going with surf stuff 😀

Thanks @aidenryan, Fins are definitely on the list. Not sure if the capacity of the pipe is enough for a fin but maybe with the compression it can be done. Let us know how it goes.
Cheers

Awesome @riceandcarry! Will do. We will be trying it on the compression, perhaps with the Hamburger Mold idea from @mattia-io here http://onearmy.world/community/forums/topic/the-hamburger-mold-2/.

Hi @Sharma-sagar, We do not have a shredder at the moment but hopefully in a few weeks. But from what I read about PET it is very difficult and energy intensiv to recycle.
I am not sure if we should not leave PET recycling to the bigger companies but I am happy to give it try and prove myself wrong.
What are you planning?
