HDPE is the plastic used in many household containers including gallon sized milk jugs. It's a dense and highly versitle material that can be easy processed and shaped without much trouble. Which makes it perfect for the hobbyist!
I recently melted down some milk jugs and bottle tops to make a colorful block of material. I began pondering what I could do with it! This was the first I idea that grabbed me. A HDPE wall clock!
After spending 2 hours cutting up a single milk bottle with kitchen shears, I knew I couldn't do it again. I felt like a late night infomercial and may have actually uttered the phrase, "There has to be a better way!"
