A while back i uploaded a video of my 3Dprintable gearbox and some people told me it looked like a shredder, I thought this was actually a nice idea so i build one. I mainly build this thing just for fun and to show people what the possibilities are with 3Dprinted parts because some people still think 3Dprints are not functional and you can only make vases, figures or boats with a 3Dprinter. 3Dprinted parts of course have their limits like you'll see in the video ;). Almost every part in this build is 3Dprinted, except for the shafts bearings, nuts and bolts etc.

To drive the shredder i used the gearbox i mentionned above. Video can be found here:    • 3D printed high torque servo/gearbox ...  
The gearbox was powered by a 3S 2200mah LIPO battery With the help of the Universal Motion Controller i made. It's possible to run the gearbox on a 6S LIPO but this would destroy the gears almost immediately in this application.
