Michael Sauers, Technology Manager at Do Space, joined Mike Hogan on “Live & Local” to talk about the classes and many pieces of equipment that are available as well as the new “Filament Recycling Collaborative” initiative. This program advances sustainable practices in 3D printing. Michael explained how this effort brings together organizations dedicated to reducing waste by recycling scrap filament (plastic thread-like material used for 3D printing) and transforming it into usable material for future projects.
