cut potato in half and rub it on iron while its cold. it cleans the iron but takes a bit time. u have to be patient. then iron can be cleaned from potato residue by clean wet cloth
I'm curious if I could melt the plastic bags onto fabric??? Maybe that's how the inventors of cloth diapers did it? I want to make my own PUL fabric to make cloth diaper fabric.
Have you tried bonding the plastic at the edges with plastic similar plastic squares to achieve larger pieces? I would think that you could separate the layers at the edge (non melted and interweave them then iron that area
Just wonder. Can we use the heat of a hot glue gun to fuse just a few dots of plastic bags along edges to extend the size of width and length for recycling bags as a large piece of plastic curtain, privacy screen, and sun shade in the backyard?
Fun video, thanks. I'd think that the end uses for this kind of 'fabric' would be quite limited. I mean, patching tents, or tarps? ok... but very few people are going to want to wear clothing made from or patched with this.
I would think making plastic bags into tarps - to protect; grills, mowers, tractors, plants, etc. wouldn't need to be "sewed" if fusing by heat/irons ? Has anybody tried this with success ?
Excuse me sir, can you make a race car tub with this?......I here Boeing makes their new airplanes with reinforced plastic but I don't know how they do it
Fun, I'm wondering about using this process to mend a torn tarp. What do you think, can I melt bags and woven polyethylene tarp fragments together to repair a torn translucent tarp that is supposed to cover my greenhouse?
Using that on a tarp hole sounds like a great idea. I would maybe think about finding out what platic has the most similar properties to the tarp plastic, especially melting temp. It would be a bugger if your patch melts but the tarp doesn't and you get a weak bond. Id love to see your follow up.
NeoHeo So I went out and tried to fuse plastic bags to a tarp that had a rip in it. The bags do fuse very well with the tarp and it seems to fix the hole very well. But the tarp will shrink, a lot, so if you are fixing it this way make sure that the patching is small compared to the tarp since it will loose shape. And also make sure that the patching is bigger then the iron you are using or you might melt a new hole in the tarp.
Thanks for the information, but I find that spending time, electricity, storage, time to collect the bags, clean them ... etc. It's a lot of work for the poor result, better hand it over to some company that recycles them and saves you bad times.
crispi1973 Great, then you can buy them back as recycled sheets and re-use them at several times the cost. I applaud recycling, but for small scale, personalised projects, this method seems ideal.
OK Plastic film engineer here... So what are we making from the " un " Fabric? I know all your melting point for your LLDPE, LDPE & HDPE. I have several ways you could improve this process.
You can fuse a great many pieces together. Thick enough to make Frames for small projects like toy houses or leaf bag holders. You can make hard jewelry, trinket plates, desk top accessories, like paper holders, pen holders, etc. I took a regular sized bag, ironed it, folded it, ironed it and so on until I had a longer piece that was thick and still pliable enough to shape. Once cool it will hold that shape until dooms day. A custom made picture frame with smaller pictures ironed on around the sides under a clear plastic bag. Wind wirlygigs, drawer liners with partitions. You can saw, drill, sand, contour and so on. When you add the idea of thicker sheets of plastic, you have the equivalent of wood pieces that can be made into anything!! Patience is a HUGE part of this project. Fuse one or two layers on a side at a time and keep going until you have the size and thickness you want. If you want it bent, do all of this in one setting. Then fold it over a form and roll it up in something to hold it there to cool completely. For wide flat sheets, you need to place something wide and flat on it to cool without any buckle or curl. Sorry, i didn't meant to make this so long. i have just had so much fun with the thicker pieces I wanted to share!
TRIGGERED!! Aren't we past this crap? Maybe his "wife" is a Trans women...THEN WHAT? IS it STILL HER Iron? And would it be ok then? Maybe she wanted it and he didn't...because he couldn't care less and lets his clothes pile up. SO WHAT?! Does anyone GIVE A SHIT?!! Yes, men can use irons...but so can women too!...as in...it doesn't matter!! It just so happens that it's HERS!! Sorry you're so leftist in your thinking that you have your head stuck up your ass and think it's against the rules to put ownership of anything remotely gender stereotyped to the that gender. God forbid we say things like...her tampons...his cock. From what I've read those are the next to go too. You people are fuckin crazy...since when has naming an OBJECT that is the possession of your spouse been a bad thing..and why ONLY when it's from the perspective you don't like? If he had said...this is my wife's shotgun...or this is my easy bake oven... would that have been ok? I have no doubt he would have said that SAME thing for a pair of scissors that she used a lot for crafts etc...or ANYTHING that his wife owns or simply uses more than he does. You do know that there are differences between men and women right? And that just because boys generally like to play with cars and girls with dolls doesn't mean they're bad people. Yes there are people who fall outside of those norms...and we love all people...but there you guys claim to be inclusive and at the SAME time exclude people who are different than the different people. You leftists need to die!
@@FrancineJohnsonMcGee it's 3 years later so maybe and hopefully you realise what Sophie meant by this comment. She is point out the fact that he called their household iron "his wife's iron" The iron is everyone's in the house but because it's a cleaning item he calls it his wife's lol. It's like saying "I just put my beer in my wife's fridge"... It's just silly because it's everyone's fridge (everyone who lives in that household). He could have instead said "I didn't use our household iron as my wife wouldn't be happy if I got plastic on it".

ScotsFurian Nobody says that YOU have to do anything like this. But why shouldn't anybody else. Far too few plastic bags get recycled the world over. The cost of going to the shops to buy more plastic sheeting, which you still have to cut up to suit your own purposes, will offset the electricity costs of this.

"You should NOT use your wife's iron", sounds like something that you have EXPERIENCE with!!! :) LOL
Thank you for the technical notes. 😊
You can get larger parchment paper 26" x 18" at a resteraunt supplier. A case cost around $35 and last me for around a decade because I cook with it.
Thank you for the info! Love your video and diy stuff! Going to try it.

Griz Woldstad Yes it's possible bond to achieve larger pieces. Have you tried fuse two sheets of polyethylene plastic?
i was thinking same
You can try using toothpaste (the regular white kind) on the iron to get melted plastic off the iron. I've had limited success with it.
Turn bags inside out so ink doesn't mess up anything and parchment paper is made for heat
please use a stabilize edit on your video and repost it. interesting content

Tarps are polyethylene and so are plastic bags, I think melting point is around 130c
