Ick! It just feels crappy and bad and cheap. Plastic things make creaky noises and fall apart, and they feel bad to interact with. Idk if it’s a sensory thing or I’m just an asshole, but I fully believe that under FALGSC I would never have to touch this shit.
They don’t make glass and metal TV remotes or game controllers. I can never replace my Kindle Oasis because every other e-reader is made of the cheapest, worst plastic.
How can I just …not have to touch plastic anymore?
A extremely impractical solution would be to take plastic X thing and submerge it in sand-oil then cast it in aluminum using the lost wax method
Lost PLA works for aluminum, too, which opens up 3D printing as an option for creating the cast molds.
Idea for an extremely niche business
