Jules. Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 The way the skelter comes packaged is great, too. a recyclable cardboard box that looks as though it was just made to fit the skelter in, & the lovely shredded paper nest. I had to go to the sorting office to collect mine, & I told the 'witty" postie that inside was an egg skelter, I was so eggcited to collect it. He said " It takes all sorts" I didn't care, I was just sooo happy to finally get my skelter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddie Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 We're trying so hard to be as footprint wary as we can; not one of our friends has any shredded paper left!! We've got a manual shredder, and my right bat wing is now a bicep again!! Anyone got a Left handed one!!?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Can't you just turn the shredder around? I have an electric one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddie Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 It's really awkward, try it, the whole thing is set up for turning the handle one way, a bit like the old fashioned hand whisks.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clucky1 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I saw a clip on telly the other day and it featured things from the ideal home exhibition. There was a 'gadget' which was a hamster cage. When the hamster went round in his little wheel it pulled paper in that you put in the top and it shredded it. What a great gadget I am a sucker for a gadget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
