Recycled paper-making mould

Make recycled paper sheets from scrap

Blend scrap paper into pulp, tip it into a washing-up bowl and dip this frame: the grid floor carries a piece of fly screen, the walls act as the deckle, and you lift out an even A5 sheet to couch onto a cloth. Stir seeds into the pulp for plantable paper.
