Took a day off on Monday. Took a trip to TST to get some art inspirations from HKMOA. The last time I was in the area was probably about half a year ago already. Spent the whole day there to see all the art and design stuff I wanted to see. Took my time to make sure I didn’t miss anything as it may very well be my last time in the area before I move back to Canada.
Spent much of my studio time working on the plant pot recycling project this past week. Countless hours was spent before a typhoon hit on Thursday and interrupted the work. I went back to the studio soon after the T8 was dropped the next day. Worked tirelessly the whole day and achieved some satisfactory results. I decided to go back to the studio the next morning and give it a second try. There was a little breakthrough in the process of turning the cleaned and shredded plant pots into 3DP filaments. The resulting 3D printed plant pot was not perfect but it was a big improvement and good enough for me to declare a success in the long-standing PP recycling project!
Very happy to see the proof-of-concept cradle-to-cradle design project I have been dreaming up for years finally bearing fruit. The next stage will be to transform the PP recycling idea into a sustainable business. Will try to do that after I return to Canada!
