I've been searching for ways to do a project like this with regular household items. seeing the blender take care of that plastic makes this feel very doable. thanks for the video!
I usually cut large bottles in half and half again put them in a clothing bag and wash them in washing machine. I put caps in small bags and put them in washing machine also. Use silicone baking paper when using sandwich press. Thanks for video as you gave me some ideas. Watch Brother's make here on RU-vid for more ideas on recycling plastic
It would technically be possible. But you'd need to create a mold and force the molten plastic in. That might require acquiring or building an injection molding system. Skateboard wheels are made from urethane, rather than plastic. Recycled plastic wheels are possible, but I doubt they would compare well against urethan wheels when as far as performance and wear is concerned.

holy microplastics, batman! i just pile all my hdpe into a toaster oven set to 360. takes longer to melt but i avoid inhalable microplastics
"LD" stands for Low Density and "HD" stand for High Density. The "PE" stands for Polyethylene. Essentially HDPE (identified by the recycling symbol "2") and LDPE (identified by the recycling symbol "4") are the same material (a form of petroleum based polymer) but one is denser than the other. I've said in the video, that the two shouldn't be mixed, but that's not to say that they won't mix. You can definitely mix the two, but if you do the density of the resulting material will be inconsistent.
