Abstract
The Parabolic Wax Melter utilizes 3-D printing capabilities and the energy produced from the Sun to heat and re-purpose crayons, candles, and other waxes. This design was created in the Humboldt State University Engineering 215, for the client, SCRAP Humboldt whose goal is to “inspire creative reuse and environmentally sustainable behavior by providing educational programs and affordable materials to the community.” (SCRAP)
Background
The client is SCRAP Humboldt, a subproject of SCRAP; a nonprofit organization located in Portland, Oregon. SCRAP Humboldt was started in 2011 when the oldest recycling plant in the area was closed and Director Tibora Bea Girczyc-Blum along with other artists and educators took action.
