Mini DIY shredders are now a reality with our latest SHREDII design. This homemade shredder was tested against wood, plastic, aluminum, steel, and even the indestructible Nokia 3310. This shredder is a great addition to our DIY machine shop, and we use it primarily for recycling 3D prints by taking the granules that come out of the DIY shredder and using them with INJEKTO, our DIY injection molding machine, to create new plastic injected parts.
This SHREDII is designed for use with Nema 34 motors, and in this video we also tested it with more powerful servo motors that we had left over from our DIY CNC and DIY wire EDM machine videos.
We hope this DIY shredder will enable those with minor shredding requirements to continue moving forward with their recycling projects.

Love watching the evolution of shredii! I might have missed it, what grade steel are the new blades?
Dang you’ve just about hit that golden YT milestone - congrats
Thanks Makers Muse, we appreciate your support 😃. We are using Chromoly steel blades which are much tougher. These new blades are also much smaller so there is more torque applied onto the plastic from the drive shaft. Let me know if you’d like to collaborate 😉 - Dave
Very refreshing to see someone actually use proper safety measures.
My man single-handedly bringing the modern industrial revolution onto the desktop
Hahaha, thanks for your support 😃, glad you appreciate what we do 😊
Thank you
@@ActionBOX can u show me how to make this? Need it to shred IC chips
Hardly single handedly. He is standing on the shoulders of many many giants. As well as walking on their backs by failing to acknowledge the designs he is claiming as his own.
@jerbear7952 lol you think anyone in shredding, winding, extrusion, press are ever going to mention the inventors? If they were songs they would be labeled "traditional".
Look awesome so far! During the metal screw test, and the phone test, you can see the blades moving and impinging on each other a bit. Looks like it would be beneficial to work out a way to compress the blade stack! Maybe a shaft collar at either end to lock the blade stack in place, and then set-screws going through the shaft collar to press inwards against the blade stack to provide compression?
Thanks for your support 😃. I like your suggestion and will definitely look into designing that. Ps. I checked out your channel and it looks awesome 😎. I can see why shredder blades would interest you 😜. Cheers, Dave
@@ActionBOX thanks Dave! I've been really enjoying your channel as well mate!
I like how you're iterating on designs. Very interesting to see the process.
Thank you very much! I appreciate your support 😃
this guy is a complete fraud, benjamin.
man, this and the desktop injection molder are absolute game changers
Thanks 😃. I’m glad to hear other people think so too 😊. They have been super valuable to me. Cheers, Dave
Agreed!
buy link?@@ActionBOX
I don't know if this is just me, but I'd seriously want an emergency stop button that kills the power, rather than telling the Arduino to stop.
Just because if the Arduino or motor drivers go haywire, or don't respond, the button won't do anything. Most likely not going to happen, but I'd really want something that cannot fail.
Hi Max, I must say, this is a great idea that is extremely important to implement. In my case I always had someone with me to hit the power switch not shown in the video in case of a disaster, but indeed I agree with you 100% that safety here is imperative. Thanks for leaving your awesome comment, and I hope you enjoyed the video regardless 😃. Cheers, Dave
@@ActionBOX No worries. Cheers for reading/replying, and most importantly, making a really awesome video/product. Best of luck to you lot.
@@1992jamo thanks again Max 😊
^^THIS
Needs a panic switch on the mains, ideally a magnetic one so it wont come on after a power failure.
I love what you doing with recycling! Great job.
Thanks a lot for your support Roland 😃
Hey I am a steam student I love your ideas on home made CNC machines I have used the old shredder for an school project before thanks for the vids
No problem, thanks for watching 😃
Totally love this design!
Thanks 😃. Check out the newer shredii 5.0 video.
Been thinking of making shredder for aluminum and glad ran into this video on my feed !
Haha, awesome, glad our efforts could help someone out 😃
Amazing work my man!!!!! I would love to be able to have something like this. For years Ive been seeing lots of 3d printed parts go into the trash when the same companies that make the printers should be working on helping us reuse the bad prints. Instead they focus on selling their own filaments.
Thanks Juan 😃. We hope this shredder will help people with small scale needs for light shredding. You can get one at actionbox.ca if you need one. Cheers, Dave
Awesome thanks for the hard work, dedication, and demonstration.
Thank you for your support 😃
You guys are amazing! I wish I had half the know-how you both have. Keep up the amazing work!
Thank you 😊, we really appreciate hearing that 😃
Awesome!!! Thanks 😁😁
Thanks for watching 😊
I love the idea of a bicycle drive, it's an elegant low tech approach
Thanks 😊, we also thought it was interesting smile. Thanks for your support 😃
Man i really need to get me a shredder. Since i learned you cant actually easily recycle prints I have been saving all my scraps.
Feel free to check it out at this link actionbox.ca/products/shredii-4-0 Cheers,
Dave
Shredpods 😂 🎧 this is genius! I want to get this and your injection box v2.0 into our lab! Cool demo project for recycled plastics to new parts. 🤙🏼😎
Haha, thanks for your support 😂. Feel free to reach out to us via CZcams and I can offer you a custom discount code.
Great video, amazing to see you keep improving designs.
Thank you very much!
Very cool! Just found your channel and subscribed. I’m planning a recycle/re-use project for our offgrid homestead, my goal is to process 100% of our recyclable materials ourselves. I’ll be documenting this project on our channel. Your shredder design looks great, I would make it a hand crank of some sort.
What would it take to beef up shreddie to handle glass and tin cans?
That’s awesome 😃, I’m glad that shredii is sparking ideas for you. I checked out your channel and it looks very interesting. Let me know if we can help in any way. To answer your question, I would need to know exactly what you are trying to shred (thickness, dimensions etc.) and I can test it out here at our shop. Cheers, Dave
That’s a sturdy machine. I’ve seen wood chippers that were less sturdy-built
Thank you my friend.
Thanks guys, This video will be most helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
I love your shreddy! So cool.
Thank you 😊 I appreciate that
Great stuff! I would love to get some of your machines for my high school students to experiment with this year.
Just found your channel. I love your structured and organized approach and your energy. Subscribed!
Thanks! Welcome aboard. We’ve got lots of exciting content in the works. More coming very soon 🙌
Cool I've been subscribed for a while! I could sure make use of shreddy!
The indestructible Nokia was destroyed because IT WANTED TO! It thought *“Enough is enough, it's time to move on!”*
😂
I consider that a Nokia victory... it broke the shredder before getting fully mauled so it's victorious yet again... literal steel nails get rekd and the nokia is just like... meh... put the battery back in and let's see a do-over... I bet the Nokia will make it out with a couple of scratches. That thing is without a doubt absolutely indestructible. I dont see why we need all of these fancy shmansy fighter jets when we have Nokia that can do both electronic warfare AND bunker/tank-busting percision KOs at a high enough velocity, fired out of standard artilery of course... but noooo we need 32 trillion dollars of debt instead. Mount that bitch on a Walmart drone and I bet it could down the F-35. In fact, I am challenging the Russian bots/intelligence officer reading this comment to try it and then give me a reward later when I win them the Ukraine war with this comment. Nuff said.
Cool stuff shredders are the ultimate ASMR
Thanks! They are oddly satisfying 😅
Thats amazing I wish I could actually retain all the info on the internet.. I hate wanting to do something from an industral application... And not knowing how. Thank you.... Great job on the video 😉
Making a mini shredder was on my list thank you soooooo very much.
No worries, check out actionbox.ca
I love building things from bikes. I could totally work with you on that idea.
This is awesome!!!!! I want one for shredding my failed 3d printes to reuse filament
Love it, glad you found this video useful 😊
this is genius very good job 👏🏾
Thank you 😊
Fell absolutely in love with your content. Btw now we know what made those phones indestructible: the battery. 😂
Thanks, I appreciate hearing that 😊. I would say the phone still beat shredii despite not having its battery 😜. Cheers
Super cool project guys !
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it 😃
This is way better than all the aluminium can crushers here on YT ;)
hahahaha, thanks, I appreciate this comment 😊
Great build, subscribed!
Thanks! 🙌
Yoooooooo....Been looking for a good shredder to help promote to the Pultrusion scene. Top notch efforts! This thing is a Beautiful Beast!
Thanks a bunch, I appreciate your support 😃. Cheers, Dave
Really impressing!
Thank you 😊
Nice iteration on the previous designs!
Thanks 😃
I have so much paper stuff, something like this would be a fantastic middle-machine for my burn barrel process.
hahaha, glad to hear. Feel free to check it out at actionbox.ca
I’d love to try and shred everything 😂
Haha there is something so satisfying about shredding things 😂
This was super cool to see after just watching the original Shredii vid. You may have covered this in another video but - is there a benefit to using the copper instead of a mounted pillow bearing? Also wondering if you have the cnc files available for this to build my own. Love this project!
Amazing project
Thank you 😃
awesome!
Really good CGI of the Nokia being shreded!
😂😂
Heck ya! At times I want to order Injecto x but then feel there will be an Injecto x+1
Good stuff guys
Hahaha, this was definitely our last shredii. It works really well, its super easy to assemble, and we are super happy with it. Injekto is also really robust and works great.
I don't know how much this Shredder is but it would be a dream to have one because I believe it can change my life for good... You're a genius sir...
Thank you sir 😃. Check out the video of our latest shredii 5s
There was so much stress on the construction when you put the Nokia in, wow :D
Indeed hahaha, that phone really is tougher than one would assume 😂. Thanks again for watching, I always appreciate seeing your comments smile. I still think we should collaborate on a project 😉
Just what I was looking for 🙂
😃 sweet, I’m glad to hear
It’ll be really cool to have a awesome shredder that I can use to shred so many things in my bedroom
Definitely! What do you have to shred?
A shredder like that would be a life saver for me.
We sell shredder kits. Check out actionbox.ca! Message us for a special discount ;)
Love your videos man
Thank you my friend 😃
Would be really nice with one of these. Have kilos of failed prints that I would like to shred and melt into new filament.
That would be awesome.
Man I want one of these! Nice build.
Thanks a lot 😊. They are definitely great machines 😃
@@ActionBOX copper shredding next?!
@@wantafastz28 no I probably won’t have time for that. What would you use it for?
@@ActionBOX shredder of copper lol. 4/0 wire specifically. But I know that is a huge task. The industrial ones are completely out of reach financially.
Me encanta!!! Me parecería más ingenioso, que los piñones se transmitieran el movimiento entre sí, con un solo motor
cool upgrade~
Thanks 😃
기계기술이. 대단하십니다
I could put that to great use. I've been saving plastic caps and other plastics for years.
It shreds caps very easily that’s for sure.
you are talentful...really good designer and artisan...
Thanks Petrie 😊. I appreciate your support.
Love the covers!
Thanks 😃. Safety first
Did you notice a few of the nokia shreds were on fire! too cool!
Good eye!
I have an idea for the machine key issue: Make the shaft hexagonal. The shaft can still transfer the torque to the blades but the shredder will be more robust as the bigger shaft as a whole is obviously going to be more stress resistant than the smaller machine key. Some Shredder designers have already done this and it definitely worked wonders.
Thanks for sharing!
Very nice!
Thank you 😃, I appreciate your support.
Absolut lovley nice Work man
Thank you my friend 😃
I love shredii vids
Thanks 😊
it looks very good, it would also be suitable for a little plastic from the printer and maybe aluminum
thanks
Amazing. I need this for a lab application to shred steel turnings. What type of steel are you using in your blade?
Hey! The blades are made of hardened steel. Contact us from our website if you have any other specific questions about the shredder.
Freaken Amazing
Thank you my friend 😊
Ayyy please one shreddy, lol I am a total dummy, and I am learning how to use freecad, I just made a phonestand, took me two tries to get it right, wishing I could recycle the pla used up 😅 loved the vid,
Thank you for watching 😃. The two shredii machines that we are giving away will be offered to two random subscribers who will be listed on our community page on Feb 19. Cheers, Dave
Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice clean video.
Thanks! Glad you liked it 😄
Wow, amazing video. Loving shredii and the content you are producing. Is it possible to code for a timed auto reverse when max torque / power draw is hit. That way it would protect the key and also react prior to further breakage. You would have to use a timer relay I think. I am sure Dave Hakkens did something like this. Keep up the amazing content. Mike
Thanks Mike! It’s definitely something to explore. Appreciate the suggestion 😄
At the rate you are redesigning shredy, you'll have one that can shred V1 by Christmas.
Hahaha, thanks Matthew. This is the last iteration 😂, it works great
from 80 subscribers to 80k? cool to have been a witness to that
Hahaha, thanks for your support all the way through 😃. I appreciate that.
Cheers,
Dave
OMG I want one of these...
Watched from Washington DC
That’s awesome, thanks for watching 😃. They are available at actionbox.ca
Cheers,
Dave
I'm interested in shredding #2 HDPE plastic (milk jugs, empty medication bottles, etc) for recycling. Is this able to help with this, and what can I do with the shredded bits to make a new product? Thanks!
I would love to get a shredder. I want to investigate them in terms of a method of reducing the volume of generic trash (too much air). Probably add a large hopper with a lid on top, and a compacting extruder below.
Thats a cool idea. You can get s shredder at actionbox.ca
Crasy Work!
Thanks 😊
Ingenious 👍🏻👍👍🏽
Thank you 😃
funny u bring up the airpods for whatever it takes, my case got ran over 2 days ago 😂😂😂 and there not even a pancake
Lol
You can put a grate with .250 holes evenly spaced below the blades. This will make the shread size smaller or larger determined y the size of the holes. But, that would probably work better if the speed was much faster.
The grinders we used in plastic had the grates in placed so that we could get consistent sized regrind to be recycled back into our extrusion process. The grates were curved to the diameter of the blades and they had a small gap. So you get a slice effect as the plastic went through the holes.
Sweet, thanks for the insight.
Ha, this thing can solve my problems with 3d print failures in Seconds. ;-)
It is great 😊. Thanks for watching.
Nice vid mate.
Thank you Max 😊
I just subscribed! I would love a shredder. I starting a plastic recycling business and I haven’t found a shredder that I can afford.
Yeah they are usually quite expensive. I wish you good luck with the business 😊
Awesome channel
I need a mini copper wire granulator!
What could you use on the discharge to take the shredded material and turn it into powder , mix with another material or into an intrusion heater tip to produce your own custom 3d print material
I’m not sure 🤔.
Need one to crush rock for Gold Prospecting. Got one one, or will this work? Thanks! Great Ideas
!!
excellent video 👍👍
Thank you my friend 😃
I have that same jacket!
Which one. Hahaha
@@ActionBOX the one at 00:06 seconds. Thin but very warm.
I need one of these for cardboard. A big one. I love the design. This would be perfect. Just needs to be wider so less folding and cutting would be needed to grind up cardboard. Are there plans for building these?
Glad you like the design! We currently don't provide plans but there are kits available on our website: actionbox.ca/products/shredii-4-0 😃
Shredders blades like those and bigger are usually made using an alloyed steel called “Manganese Steel” or “Mangaloy” also “Hadfield Steel” because this is one if the most toughest and abrasive steels there is and as a bonus the steel actually self repairs over time because it work hardens and gets extremely hard and tough up to 65 + HRC which is high speed steel territory but it does not harden all the way through, only the parts that are doing the work so the tips and edges and as soon as they start to wear the new steel hardens underneath so in essence it self repairs constantly holding an edge but that’s not all, because the new steel underneath is softer it’s has very high impact toughness whilst resisting wear on the work hardened edges. This is why it’s used in shredders and crushers excavator bucket teeth things like that and you’d be surprised the things it’s used in. It’s almost impossible to machine even with TC (Tungsten Carbide) due to its work hardening properties, it is usually cut to shape with plasma cutters or laser cutters due to its crazy properties and then ground, Anyway I just thought it was relevant to what is going on here.
This is awesome information, thanks for sharing 😊
Awesome. How can I get the design to produce my own shredii ?
Check out actionbox.ca
Will it also work with wet materials?
man this nokia intro was the best !😂
Hahaha thanks 😂
4:34 LMAO I couldn't have ever predicted how fast that thing consumed itself!
Haha it’s a powerful machine 😅
Love your channel, and got a new sub.
Thanks, welcome aboard 😃
Wow i really love and need it.
Thanks 😊
Awesome
Thanks!
New sub. Glad I found yr channel
Thanks for subbing!
