Hello Community! For the past few years I have been working a new, innovative project. X-Struder V1. The first application for permission to be on crowdfunding failed, but I am even more motivated to publish the model to the public. One reason that was cited is the unknown want for it in the public. The purpose of this forum is to increase popularity for this and gauge the want for it. The other reason for this forum is to post updates and for the community to collaborate on the design.

You may be wondering, what is the X-Struder V1? If you know anything about 3D Printing, you know about the most annoying problem, waste. Whether it be printer poop or failed prints, you always have waste. But what if you can recycle this waste back into filament that you can use again? Or what if you can make a spool of filament under $10? This is the solution! There are several filament extruders on the market, but they are either too complicated or too expensive, or do not even work! 

If this does eventually get posted on Crowdfunding, I plan to make several tiers, including selling kits or even fully assembled units! The best part, most of the hardware parts can be me made on a 3D Printer, CNC/Laser Cutter. So if you have an H2D Combo, you can make almost all of the parts on it. (Excluding Electronics and Metal Parts)  

Risks and Challenges

Creating a project like this requires time and precision, so unexpected challenges may occur. I have done my best to eliminate or rule out any challenges that may occur.
