3D printer fails recycler

Hey Ben my name is Denis and that's my idea

(sorry for my english i normally speak french i'm from Belgium)

Can you build a machine who works like an hot glue gun but you put alls your fails 3D prints in it and he breaks it, heats like a hot glue gun and transform them to a brand new filament, i think thats a good idea.

Trying to make something that can do this is actually one of the major goals of the 3d printing community. Such a machine would also allow scrap abs to be cheaply recycled. A few complex devices already exist. See the link for an example. http://m.instructables.com/id/Build-your-own-3d-printing-filament-factory-Filame/
Also, I don't know why you included a kitten picture, but I approve.
