[papercreters] Studying different kinds of mixers

Hi,

I'm collecting parts for a tow mixed but mindful of the energy ( cost of gas ) to tow it around, so I'm always looking at other kinds of mixer that might be used with an electric motor or vertical shaft gas engine from a lawn mower or such.

Here's a link to an ad that showed up on Craigslist labeling it a media shredder. I don't know how this design would work with paper or cardbourd but thought, if I am allowed, I'd publish it here in case it might be of interest.

On another note, my brother works for a plant that makes paper plates and he says their pulper is about 16' across and 4' deep and iutilizes a 1'-2' diameter helix shaped impeller in the center. It is powered by a 50 hp. electric motor.

I'm trying to get some pictures of it to post here.

Thirdly, why?. Given that I recall posting here before and never in a non-constructive way, does this post have to be approved by the group owner??

Dan
