And they are not without issues. They work by cutting the paper into strips, then yanking the strips to TEAR the ribbons. That distorts the paper and what's printed on it to make matching up pieces impossible. But the shredders have thin cutters rather like transformer cores; a staple can damage them, a paper-clip is SURE to. The better gadget is the SEM Model 22 Disintegrator. It's sorta like a reel lawn mower on steroids. -- A host is a host from coast to coast...............wb8foz@panix.com & no one will talk to a host that's close..........................
