Hi All I've been offered an old paper shredder cheap. It's a Rexel P-190 strip- cut shredder FWIW. It's been removed from mainline service in an office as 'it doesn't work very well' - I think it doesn't cleanly separate the strips all the time etc.
A somewhat higher powered shredder like this would come in handy at home, if only for shredding prior to paper going on the composter. We already have a small cross-cut shredder but it's a bit short on grunt (as they all seem to be). But would there be any mileage in trying to fix/improve this fault? I'm guessing it may just be old age, and that the cutters are knackered ... but I'd be interested to learn of uk.d-i-y type repairs/improvements I might be able to consider...
Thanks j^n
