Will update when finished, box box and hoper are now built, next is to think of a way to add a gear motor with chain drive.
IF ANYONE NEEDS EXTRA PHOTOS THEN LET ME KNOW WHAT OF AND I WILL POST THEM HERE.
We had printed and built the compost shredder we’d seen on Thingiverse which had been put up by THYMARK
It worked reasonably well, but there just wasn’t enough “beef” to it for our “wants”.
Casting around a few ideas and we came up with a design that has wooden grinding gears.
To be sure that the teeth would hold up, I went to a wood specialty shop and asked for the hardest wood they had in stock. I was expecting maple or ash, but he had some Arizona Iron Wood. One look and a quick hefting told me all I needed to know. This stuff is truly like “iron”, tight grain and VERY dense. Perfect for what I wanted. BTW this stuff “ain’t cheap”. One 8 ft. length would do me just fine. We used the original end piece design to hold the bearings. They’re perfect.
