Wonders With Purge

Turn that filament purge into art. Create colorful artwork displaying different wonders from tropical fish to planets and space. Looks great with or without a light!   You can use a plastic bottle instead of printing the full “glass” if it is the correct diameter (~79mm). I recycled a 1.25L Dasani water bottle by cutting the middle section to the same height as the wrap. You'll still want to print the “glass” insert so that it is brighter if using it as a lamp.   Assembly Place a wrap inside of the “glass” so that it creates a cylinder pressing against the “glass” wall. Fill with your purged filament from your printer. Place “glass” on base and add the top. For better results, trim the purged filament so that they are mostly solid pieces.   Optional Place a light inside of the base to illuminate the plastic waste. Any puck or LED strip should work. There is a cutout in the base for wires.
