Plastic Recycling - Simple Methods for recycling plastic at home

• Melt Plastic into sheets or blocks
• Create an aluminium mold in a block formation with a screw on top to press the plastic into the mold firmly
• Put all plastic of the same type and color into the mold
• Put the entire mold filled with plastic into an oven, toaster oven, or other heat source at 425 degrees celcius for 30 mins
• Take out and press down the plastic using chopsticks, clothespins, or any piece of wood
• Repeat this process as many times as necessary to fill the mold, and allow the surface to be smooth
• The resultant blocks can be sculpted or cut using any regular woodworking tools
• Heat guns can be used to weld multiple blocks together
• Any excess can be re-melted in other blocks
