Recycled Plastic Guitar Picks | How to Make SUPER Thin HDPE Sheets

In this video we show you how we make sheets of recycled plastic down to about 0.5mm thick. We then combined this with a hand-operated guitar pick cutter to create custom coloured, 100% recycled plastic plectrums! These are super easy to make one you've made the HDPE sheets. However, if you'd prefer to buy some of our guitar picks, then check we have just added them to our online store: https://www.brothersmake.com/shop/p/guitarpicks

We are using our new t-shirt press with HDPE lids and some shreddings from our brand new shredding machines from Plastic Preneur (https://plasticpreneur.com/machines/). With these brand new machines, we are able to make products to sell. We have BIG plans on how to utilise waste plastic and help to prevent some of the 300 million tonnes created every year from being sent to landfill or ending up in our oceans.

HUGE Thanks you to everyone that helped us test these picks out before release, and an extra big thanks to Andy from Skinny Knowledge for that awesome outro! Check out their music here https://bit.ly/3rmOuzP and here https://www.facebook.com/SkinnyKnowledge 🤟🏽
