Newest manual shredder almost ready for prime-time

[bryonlr]

I don't want to be in the shredder business and I really don't care who sells them. All I know is there is no reliable, economical, introductory shredder on the market and there is a need for one.

If your name is on it Don, Thats all I need to know, count me in for one.

 

[SmokesAhoy]

This is a really good idea.

 

[ArizonaDave]

Yeah, unfortunately it was a matter of having them made economically and selling them or having them made stateside and admire them sitting on a self....tough decision.


Nope...it's a righty, but if you're a lefty, you've been living in a right handed world all your life and can make the adjustment...like with everything else.

Ha ha! I'm ready for the challenge, bring the shredder on~! You're right, I use both hands anyway for just about everything. At some point in my early years I quit whining and just got it done. Oh yeah, whining wasn't allowed back then.....

I think I want one of those. Using too many band aids on my thumb cutting thin slices of pads of leaf with scissors!

The shredder getting ready to go back to China. Here's list of modifications I've made.

If you see something wrong or something over-looked, please feel free to comment.

I believe someone suggest a bolt-on grip for the handle, rather than the cast grip, so that it could rotate, and not cause blisters.

Looks good to me!

That was me. And that is the only thing I see missing.

The purposed price point is astounding. When this goes live, I will be in for a combo. The shredder and a powermatic manual stuffer.

I had to reps in the shop the other day and gave them the garbage model from Poland. I explained the handle was the only thing "right" with that shredder. Yet another rep will be going to China to personally monitor the production...I will explain the handle to him ad well.

A drawing with the updstes will be sent to me before production begins, so I'll have another opportunity to make more modifications.

The only thing I can see, is the rolling grip and---A way to put a flex sleeve (optional) on the shaft for a cordless drill. (for too tierd to crank folks.)

I would have never thought of that!?! Good idea!

 

[BarG]

I hope they sell by the truckload. A good manual shredder makes sense for some budgets and needs.

 

[CT Tobaccoman]

Looks good to me!

Ditto. Bring it on!

 

[ArizonaDave]

Very cool little shredder. You put tobacco in and quarters come out.

.... the finished product should be available just in time for Christmas.

That would be a great time for it to be available. Looking forward to it~!

That's what I was thinking... you could send me one for a Christmas present....

 

[Dreamsoul]

Hi , for that price i will probably take one or two shredders ...

 

[FmGrowit]

I ordered this one a few weeks ago, got it yesterday and express shipped it to China within hours.





This one shreds stems with ease (not that I suggest smoking stems). The only modifications it needs is to create a smoother surface. The cut is prefect.

 

[Brown Thumb]

Nice Score Don, a couple of grease fittings and a motor and you will be a millionaire.

 

[Boboro]

Hell Yea!

 

[deluxestogie]

That has kind of a Soviet patina.
