Plastic waste is filling up our landfills, clogging our oceans, and cluttering the streets of our cities. What if we could take unwanted plastic and turn it into things we need, right in our own homes? The Super Trash Bros determined that it's feasible to grind up, melt, or otherwise break down plastic to create filament for 3-D printers. Imagine
