Our lab is located in a famous area as the beach.We can enjoy the beach life but there are a lot of garbage on the beach.

The total weight of plastic garbage discarded in the sea is expected to exceed the total weight of fish inhabiting the sea by 2050.
I would like to address this problem in Fab Academy !

I'd like to transforme the plastic bottle (garbage) on the beach to something that having a function or value. In thinking about final project, what I really want to make is like the figure fllows (Beach Up-Cycle Maker).

The function of the Beach Up-Cycle Maker is devided as fllows.

• Function-1:Shatter the plastic(like a pellet)
• Function-2:Melting the pellet
• Function-3:Shaping the something

The figure below is a modulality idea.
I want to develop all or part of these funtions.
