Can you give more details on the chipper? I've been looking at chippers but need to know what size is minimum for doing a good job of shredding paper. One that takes a phone book sounds large enough.

OK. So a couple of days ago I got around to a test-run of USING the chipper, although I can't get around to makin crete yet...it's been rainin almost continually for 2 weeks. On the only dry day we saw last week, I got around to my friend's place with a couple of old phone books. (the thick yellow pages). We fired up the chipper...We tossed the phonebooks in the hopper...and watched shredded paper FLY! Oddly, a few pages made it through almost completely intact. >From the toss to the end of the experiment (for each book) took about 2 seconds. I guess this means the most difficult part will be findin a way to turn the "cloud" of shredded paper into more of a "pile". Maybe a huge canvas sack tied onto the output of the chipper? I'd have to empty it every few minutes but that seems the most sensible. ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
