[[Has caption::Precious Plastic recycling machine| ]]
Armin got the laser cut parts and two flange bearings; they are in a box in the metal workshop.
Lukas ordered a piece of 27 mm (Schlüsselweite) hexagonal steel.
Other materials include threaded rods and other metal parts that we should already have at the Space.
We should remember to take some photos with each step, so that we can put together a nice build log like this one in the end!
Tasks
The following tasks should be sufficient in order to assemble the shredder. If everybody is fine with github, we can also move this task list into a project on github. Please contact Martin if you want this to be done.
