Easy Print Shredder: A Remixed Version of My Easy Shred V4 This easy print shredder is a remixed version of my original Easy Shred V4 design. What remains the same is the box, handle, and ergonomic handle grip - all carefully designed to provide optimal comfort and control during use. However, significant changes have been made to simplify the printing process while maintaining ease of assembly. If you've already printed the V4 model, you can reuse the same box, handle, and grip for this updated version, streamlining your efforts and reducing waste. There are two distinct printable files: one for the cutters and another for the gear system. The cutters require printing nine identical units, which makes it essential to have a single file for this component. In contrast, the gear system consists of just two units that can be printed from a single file. Additionally, a spacer is included in the design to facilitate a precise fit between the handle and gear components. For those seeking enhanced durability and performance, metal cutters and shafts can be substituted for their plastic counterparts. However, please note that this would necessitate special machining to ensure a precise fit - an option worth considering if you're looking to upgrade your shredder's capabilities.
