Looking for Filament testers!

Jaspermid · 2015-12-28T13:41:45.000Z

Hi,

I’m Jasper, Co-founder of Reflow. Reflow is a social enterprise that transforms used plastic bottles into high quality 3D print filament in developing countries. Our goal is to improve the lives of waste pickers from these countries and build 3D printing eco-systems around the world.

We’ve set up our first production facilities in Mexico and Tanzania. We are currently looking for 3D print enthusiast in Amsterdam that want to help by answering some brief questions and testing the first production cycles of filament.

If you are interested, please let us know by either answering this thread or sending an email to Jasper@reflowfilament.com.

Thanks!

Jasper

Add me to that US list… California here… I can print both common filament sizes.

Okay that sounds great!

Hi Jasper, I do live in Eindhoven and have a built my own Prusa Steel printer, currently I use 1.75 mm PETG as my favorite filemanet material, let me know if I can help you out.

I’m located in Canada, but would be glad to help out if you expand over seas. I love the idea of re-purposing those pesky bottles into something useful again. Kind of like an offset for our filament footprint, due to the occasional failed print.

Strike one more, for your next phase in the US. Thanks for your efforts.

Hi, I’m in Brussels and I have an Ultimaker 2 (2.85mm). I will be happy to test.

Thanks and Happy New Year 2013 !

Great idea Jasper! we’re from Australia and happy to put up my printer farm of 18 printers for you to use to test the filaments. 3dprintingguy.com

Hi 3Dprintingguy :),

Thanks for the comment! We’ll be testing in NL first but will expand internationally over the next few months. Would you be open to setting up a Skype talk so we can ask you some questions in the meantime?

Thanks,

Jasper
