I Turned PET Bottles Into A 3D Printed Pi Case - DIY Bottle Recycler

A few weeks ago I published a project on the controller that I designed for a PET bottle recycler that I've been working on. I've now completed the rest of the design and at the end of the video, I use it to turn a few old PET bottles into a new case for my Raspberry Pi.
