What Materials Should We Try?
Each RP system is in need of materials.
We like 3D Powder Printers - FAST

If it is economically viable? (paper/cardboard)
Government mandated? (paper,etc)
If it is energy viable? (aluminum/steel cans)
How does 3DP help or hurt?
Using recycled or recyclable materials!
Lower energy footprint (personal 3DP 60-90 watts)
What to do with re-prints?

What happens if
the major buyer
stops buying
plastic recycle?
About 10% of ALL of the plastic we use as
humans is recycled world-wide!

3DP is a manufacturing process.
3DP contributes to MWS (may add non-traditional waste household waste).
3DP community needs to embrace environmental issues.
3DP can use materials friendly to environment.
3DP users will start asking for recycled materials (forcing the value proposition).
Recycled material systems will ensure a sustainable future for 3DP.
