Description
A 5-tooth blade for a fully 3D printed Dual Shaft Shredder (DSS). Quite sharp. Fits 12mm (from parallel sides) hexagonal shaft. Please check out the drawing sheet (it's my first time making one!) for information on dimmensions and tolerances!
Labels for right blades and left blades (will correspond to a shaft). If a single shaft shredder would like to incorporate this, don't worry about left/right.
Settings: Use no supports, no brims (simple design)
Strength: super strong infill, strong material, 3+ perimeters.
This part will be under load, so it ought to be strong! I would recommend this filament brand (aff. link!) (hint: buy the PCTG or other tough materials!)
Operation Perpeutal Printing is a movement to utilize 3D printing to create a sustainable loop preventing plastic pollution.

Well, you can't create a shredder with only a few blades! I will be releasing more and more files on the shredder (with many variations to suit your own needs). This project hopes to incorporate the community, so please share it!
