MN#48 - Live from Porto 

I usually stay away from "update" or "Live" posts but these are very nicely done, thank you. Just because you have a passion project doesn't mean it automatically translates to RU-vid. You guys combine the digital talents needed and your passion and generosity comes through and give the channels high value.

I think you are doing a great job there. The way you present what your community is doing is more precise and on the point.

love you, Mattia and all you do for Precious Plastic! You did great! it's only going to get easier and better. the Hakke-man is a hard act to follow ;)

Congratulations on your wedding Mattia!!

thanks so much for the updates. Also, good idea to share the responsibility for presentation of the MN. Dave deserves a break, and it's "one army" and not "one man", anyway :) I'm training to be a pastor and am very interested to see "spiritual life" as a whole package: not just "spiritual questions" vs "worldly/practical life", but it connects. So, plastic use and recycling is very important to me. I don't have much more than a dorm room and some simple tools, but I'm experimenting a lot, especially with low-tech applications for slums/other poor communities. I so far have made some fused plastic shopping bags, a backpack, and just recently, my first (very rough) cutting board. You are some of the people who keep me inspired and going. Thanks, and greetings from Germany :)

Welcome to Porto!

I want to congratulate for courage for all the new episode makers, film making looks easy, but everyone who tried figured out it has some challenges. More power to you guys. And great that you help for Dave. Keep on going and we will try to help you on your way.

In Latvia we have a start up "Cycle Plastic" team

Breath Breathtaking, especially in this covid19 time

Empty😂 good shout outs, but need more recycling content from other countries that have had starter kits put in a while back & what they're doing now

Hello. The housing issue is so important and thouse houses probably have owners but it doesnt exist a real policy to fix thouse houses to people live in it. And the rent in Porto is at this time higher, than the National wage salary. Great to have this news from tour work. Really like it. 👍🏻💪 keep up

Love new format!! Looking forward to next one already.

hahahah, empty... empty empty. What an amazing channel this is, as it was a recommendation for me... now I'm on this episode, after 4 others that has a chance to inspire so many. Thank you for your continued efforts, and soon I shall be on the $1 a month plan to help out.

So many empty houses 😅 very good episode ♻️ and thanks for mentioning Plastmakers in Precious Plastic section I appriciate it a lot 🖤

Welcome! Porto was needing this project!

I love your videos, keep up the good work!

Just a small correction about the bridge you mentioned, the author wasn't Gustave Eiffel. The bridge on the image is from a Eiffel's student. But Gustave Eiffel has a bridge in Porto, it's the old train Bridge. The one near the plantation you mentioned.

Great video!

I love Precious Plastic

Great Scott

mattia , you are cool . thanks for the good content

Please upload more about the thermoset recycled plastic!! Great video! Mattia u have gorgeous eyes!

Bei libri! Thanks for the advices

💗 te amo monastic plastic recycler.

It would be nice if you could use RU-vid's tool to split video topics within the video. I like watching most of the news, but am particularly interested in Project Kamp. This makes it easy for myself and others to see what we're interested in when we're in a rush or just don't have time. That said, you guys are inspiring, keep it up!

Please add the instagram in the description with a link as well. Or any other clickable info you have. I will start donating to you guys via patreon! Good job. You are inspiring

i missed my chance to ride to the German festival with all the hippies in that van :,(

Aw dang now I want to move to Porto. GetHandsDirty is a pretty successful DIY RU-vidr who's based there, I wonder if doing a collab episode with her would be a neat PR move.

cool

God I love Porto! Yeah I was always wondering why there are so many vacant buildings and ruins? Is it because the owners don't have money, or are the regulations to hard to renovate?

How’s squatting handled in Porto?

Empty, empty, empty hahahaha

The Eiffel bridge is the "empty" one ( number 2)

Someone should squat all those empty buildings!!!

Not very much interested in empty houses. Maybe we need more of France guys. And we would like to know more about project kamp. Who is living there? There is really no plans to do anything in 2021?

empty, i like the new format btw. and i feel that dave bored and lonely there

Empty? Can I live there?

What happened to people in Porto? Did they just go away and leave those buildings and houses abandoned?

I think Porto is pretty empty 🤔🤔🤔

1st

The new format is OK. Those bicycle shredders are interesting. But on the (proto)types that I have seen, the "rider" can't see what he is doing. Many people "ride" on stationary bicycles these days, especially when the weather is bad (too cold, too wet, to windy) as an alternative for outside cycling. There are "spinning clubs" all over the world (unfortunately 99,99% is closed, due to the COVID restrictions) How nice should it be, if somebody can develop a bicycle-powered conveyer-belt and shredder in which the input of plastic is at the backside of the bicycle and the output of shredded plastic in front of the rider.

I like the video, but making a bicycle shredder is just dumb and a waste of time if you want to do large quantities of shredded plastic (which is your goal).

We are here for the plastic refining, not for religious stuff. Please leave buddhism and hinduism out of your content..
