Since out Filastruder is doing so well I was looking into reusing my print scrap.
First I just put the parts in my kitchen blender. Everything bigger than 2-3mm did not get shredded
Then I melted down some pieces in the oven and got a niece sheet of plastic.
After freezing the sheet for 15 min I put it in the blender again. This worked better, but nearly destroyed the blender. You can see the clear plastic pieces broken of from the blender it self.
Maybe with a glass blender, more time in the oven to get the sheet thinner, and more freezing this will work better, but a blender with a glass case is not cheap to come by.
