@ZennTwex polypropylene
wow – that must work out so much cheaper than buying regular ready made golfing T’s
thats a really nice little machine
I working on a material good for low pressure molding. I believe your process would work. I might need your help to build one for my use.
how do i get info on building one?
Hello, i would be interesting in buy your machine too or can you tell vere I can find one for sale?
Thanks
How powerful is that pneumatic cylinder on there?
@pat60606 PP is Polyprophylen. 😉
Whats PP??
Do you know where to get em…a website or store or anything….!
I use natural PP and powder pigments.
I had the PP pellets on hand, I bought the pigments from Industrial arts supply.
Thx
how do you do the metalwork?
Ehy,
Where do you get the raw plastic pellets,
can you tell us your supplier…
Tks
im interesting to buy your machine, please let me know
Do a web search for tabletop molding machine or hobby molder. There is an Industrial Arts supply company, can’t remember their web site, that sells machines similar to the one that I made.
Thanks
Could you please tell me where I can buy a plastic modling machine about this size? What you did there is just blow my mind. Really really appreciate if you can help. Thanks
nice
Awesome!!!
Awesome! If you could post a webpage with plans of how to build it, or even a clearer more well-lighted version of the video which shows more clear upclose shots of each event as it occurs with a bit of narration or captions, that’d be awesome! I’m collecting ideas for making a 7-inch-PVC-disc compression molding machine at home, a big undertaking due to large size of product (records), would love to borrow ideas from yours (have the Gingery book).
Could you please send me some plans of this machine on my e-mail?
My grandfather build one 45 years ago.
And i still in the bussines

do you have any plans or guides for how to build one? Or perhaps an upcoming video tutorial? 😉
I combined design elements from a couple of different machines.
That is a very impressive machine! Did you work from a publicly available plan or is it your own design?
How many can you put out an hour, if you had to work flat out? My son said thre’s a guy injection moulding in his garage making $15000 a week by himself, it really sounds like a lucrative business to get into!
So are you putting clear plus color chips?
Does the color change a bit each time you make them? What is the melting point, around 190 degrees for these chips?
Just asking as i used to work for a polyprop yarn manufacturer years ago, and the old brain is rusty as ever?? Sorry about all the questions mate i just want to start this as a hobby too
