    An answer to that paper shredder question

    Here it is, even better than the hamster shredder, this machine makes something useful out of the shredded paper. Now when you tell someone what they can do with the proposal it's actually possible. Check out the article in the UK Telegraph.

    Caution, links at the Telegraph may lead to NSFW areas.
    Bill,

      That is a wild idea! I see a lot of work every day not worth the paper it is printed on, but now it is.

          Had a chuckle reading the comments to the video. (this saves me from so many paper cuts, just using the existing work papers)


          I picture this in some cubical movie, where the writing "on the wall", doesn't get dissolved and gets disseminated in the men's room.

            I have been looking for a picture and just found out that I didn't take one - of what is billed here in Japan as the worlds largest toilet paper roll from recycled paper - by that company. I went to a "washi" museum last fall in Mino, Gifu prefecture.

            IIRC, there was a machine like that on display which showed and encouraged recycling paper for such as on the video

            They don't have the picts of the roll in the links below but they are interesting to check out - all that is done with washi and recycled paper.

              That's one way to make any proposal " long and useful".
