Basics

Part of the Open Source Textile Construction Set
Creates Consistent, potentially Alpaca / Chinchilla level quality Textiles, From A Diverse Pool of Potential Keratin Based Inputs
Does so by dissolving keratin based input materials (Wool, Animal Fiber, etc ) and then bringing it out of solution by pumping it through a nozzle into a tank of a different solution, which lowers the solvent's solubility, causing a uniform strand of cellulose fiber to form
This can then be processed into thread, string, rope, cloth etc.
The resulting textiles are biological molecule based, but are as consistent as plastic based textiles, unlike solely natural fiber
The biggest issue is the solvent, nearly all other apsects have been done in industry, and the Open Source Cellulose Based Semi-Synthetic Textile Producer is essentially the same machine
- Said solvent would also lowkey dissolve hair/nails/skin, so not exactly safe...
Scihouse Inc. has this project on backburner, as well as spider silk in the same machine (the genetic engineering for yeast->spider silk is nearly done (see The Thought Emporium 's videos on the project
