			How do we explain the 100x factor difference of the Pearce paper above?
			*10x - for the 10x faster print rate of the [[SuperVolcano]] compared to standard nozzles used in the study
			*10x - for the 10x lower cost of electricty than the grid 10 cent/kWhr standard. [[Soft Energy Paths]] discusses that 70% of grid electricity cost is Transmission and Distribution (T&D).

	*'''OSE efficiency results: Using Lyman Filament Maker, it takes about 2 hours to produce 1 kg of plastic. The filament maker uses only about 200W of electicity. Thus - we are using 200Whr/lb to make ABS filament from pellets. The elecricity cost is thus only 2 CENTS taking an average cost of grid electricy - of 10 cents/kWhr. If we consider grinding the filament from bulk scrap - that may double of triple the cost - making the filament cost from waste plastic under 10 cents per lb. Exact data to be determined in the [[Boot Camp 2019]].		*'''OSE efficiency results: Using Lyman Filament Maker, it takes about 2 hours to produce 1 kg of plastic.
