Renegade is a kickstarter project for creating 3D-printing pen that works by recyling household plastic waste like plastic bottles, files and bags.
The idea was born out of a concern for the environment as well as a frustration with the cost of filament for standard 3D printing pens. The pen itself is made from durable aluminum with a powerful drive motor and gearbox that allow for the smooth feeding of plastic strips, which are created with the ChupaCut – a cute, smiley-faced contraption that shreds plastic bottles into 3, 6, 9, or 12 mm pieces to be used in lieu of filament.
