Waste Reduction

Our Quest Against Waste

At NerdMuse HQ, we’re on a mission to keep our maker’s space magical and waste-free. Here’s how we’re leveling up our eco-game:

Cardboard & Refillable Spools - Dungeon-Grade Durability
Plastic filament spools are out. We use cardboard or refillable spools to kick single-use plastics to the curb. 

Scrap Filament - From Fallen Heroes to New Allies
Failed prints, purge lines and support structures all land in our “Dragon Hoard.” Once we’ve got enough, we melt them down and pour them into silicone molds to create coasters, keychains and dice trays.

Found & Reforged - Old Items, New Legends
Why start from scratch when hidden treasures abound? When possible, we try to give things new life- refinishing worn cutting boards instead of making new ones and turning reclaimed wood into coasters, frames, and rustic décor-upcycling with a heroic twist.

Print-on-Demand, Not Print-on-Rubbish
By partnering with Printify, Spoonflower, and RipstopbytheRoll, we only print what you order, slashing overproduction and keeping designs fresh.

Solar-Powered Sidequests
Whenever we bring a 3D printer or laser cutter to pop-up events, it runs entirely on solar power - no gas generators needed. Our ultimate goal is to power our whole maker’s space with solar energy by late 2026.

Join us on this eco-adventure, one filament strand, one reclaimed board and one sun-charged print at a time!
