[papercreters] Judith Williams Hammer mill question, more details & info.

Hello Group
I was the individual who asked Judith about a Hammer mill for cardboard, when told me she had asked for information here and i thought i would ad some details, first off i have only recently discovered papercrete, but i am fortunate that i can get Cardboard by the Bales, and can get sand for free as well, so that leaves me buying cement as the only recurring expense i can think off.
But back to the question at hand
i have an old agricultural Feed Hammer Mill, that can use plates with varying size holes to vary the size of the ground product running through it, if i member right (20 years ago) it was set up to grind corn into fairly course feed say roughly pea gravel size and smaller consistency, it might indeed be to fine, Here is a picture of a similar piece of equipment.

I had thought to grind the cardboard directly into a tow mixed by rigging it so the grinder outlet ran through a holes in the roof of the mixer and have another hole as an air outlet covered with screen of some sort to hold the dust down, because it is, at least with corn, very dust work :)

Ok thats the theory, what can i do to make this a workable plan.?
idea, anything like i said im new to this :)
