It would be great if we got included. www.transmutation.com.au. I made the version 3 machines 2 years ago and now have a very successful circular economy business in Robe, Australia on the back of the Precious Plastic idea. We make products (#breadtagbowls and #breadtagboards on Instagram) that are sold in a major fashion brand chain as well as 17 other retailers in Australia. Thanks guys 👍
