How to Make a Shredder Machine | DIY Shredder Machine

In this video, I will show you how to make a shredder machine. You could call it a homemade shredder machine.
Some time ago my brother needed a shredder machine. But unfortunately in our country the shredder machines are not made.
So we decided to find a machine in a scrap yard. And then we searched in many scrape yards but no machine was found. When there was no machine after much effort, my brother asked me to make a machine.
At first I found it very difficult because, I had no experience in making such machines. So, I refused to build the machine. This type of machine is also difficult to make because of the high level of accuracy. One small mistake can ruin your whole design and all your money can be wasted. But my brother insisted and encouraged me that if you try you can make this machine. After so much encouragement, I decided that I would make this machine anyway. Then, I started working on this project and built a machine.
There may be many flaws in the design of this machine. If there is a flaw in the design of this machine, it could be that I did not have any other machine or diagram in front of me that, I was coping. I was just thinking and designing in my mind. Lack of experience has also cost me a lot to make this machine. The cost of making this machine is close to fifteen hundred dollars even though, I bought an electric gear motor from scrape at a cheaper rate for this machine. But after making this machine, I have been able to make a professional level shredder machine.
I made this machine completely in my workshop Only laser cutting is done from outside. Because laser cutting is necessary to make the shredder machine blades, accuracy is impossible without it. We can't do this in our workshop with the help of Plasma Cutter.
I hope you guys like my effort and you will encourage me too. If you have any suggestions on how to improve the design of this machine, please leave a comment in the comments section.

[@xyengineeringandtechnology8497]

Alright Mark. I am 90% done. Once I give it the finishing touch, I'll do that. Actual fabrication isn't as easy as KZbin videos make it look :-), but I was able to crack it. From making adjustments to the Series orientation of the Blades shown in this video to a Spiral orientation (the output sizes were not shown here for a purpose 😀), to the reduction in speed to achieve great torque.
