It’s always good to have a paper shredder, to get rid of all that “sensitive” information on bills and credit card offers. But how to do it without using precious electricity?
This hand-powered paper shredder takes care of that. I got it for free from BCBS, and it’s been useful for shredding paper, which can then be used to make some homemade paper. It works really easily too, and shreds CDs and credit cards.
So if you’re thinking about getting a paper shredder and don’t want to use electricity for it, go for the hand-powered kind. They work good, save money, and help conserve energy AND your identification. Truly a win-win situation.

I sent them an electronic mail to axe them… hopefully they'll let me know where to buy them, sir.

note the double use of the adjective "powered" – when used doubly, the adjectives take on a deistic quality, one of which manages to drag in an almost omnipotent quality. oh, the poems that could be written upon this very subject! i'll hold my tongue and let the rest of you speculate!
