JoeD 24 Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Shredders are fine, you can make something similar quite cheap though, I will try to get a link up, it is really easy, looks good and ie effective Joe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoeD 24 Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 http://www.ukcider.co.uk/wiki/index.php/Main_Page This is one of the sites I use. They have plans to make your own press or scratter. Hope it helps, Joe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
