I have quite a few of those left over that I am using to spool "new" filament made with the Filastruder/Filawinder.

However, I was wondering what material they are made of since maybe I could shred some extra (if I do not use them for Christmas lights storage) to make more filament.

HIPS ? ABS ? I could find no recycling marks...

Thanks,


Based on the smell when you burn one it is most likely ABS.
