This 250-hp Artex CB1200 manure/silage spreader makes quick work of a Geo Metro. The Metro likely had some non-shredder-friendly parts removed, but this is still a very clever viral promotion by Artex. In GIF and short video.

Neat & Interesting but makes one hell of a mess!!!! Should do it the other way and blow the chunks it shreds into the trailer! LOL
I'm not cleaning that up

hmm blue rino should be doing this with thier tanks.....Ive had somany of their tanks that leek. bad seals, bad valves. but they assure me they all get rebuilt every time they get refiled......no they get a quick paint if needed and a new plastic sleve over the tank if the old one is dead... you can not fix stupid. I have 6 good tanks that I have refilled, not exchanged. allways look at the one they give you for exchange, look at the seal for rot ,dry,hard,cracks.if it look ok then after installing it open the valve half way and let it sit for 30 min then do the sniff test...many have leekey seals on the shaft.you can also do the soapy water test witch should be done on all instalations. do it with thevalve closed.then part open then open. look for bubbles when rotating the knob at the shaft.and all over the valve assy too.
Bet it'd MUCH more exciting with a full one!
Oh Yeah that'll work!
I do agree, you have to look them over good before you accept one. BUT I have discovered that you can swap old style or out of date tanks, for usable ones. I got 10 out dated tanks from a site I was cleaning up, exchanged them for good ones at Lowes. When empty I take the good tanks to be refilled. When you get them filled, you get 17 pounds of propane, Blue Rhino only puts 15 in them.Quote:

as far as shreading the geo....what the hell are they growing using a geo for fertilizer...cammarows?:clapping::rofl::rimshot:
I believe this is a reversed GIF of an egg placed on a shredder, which is itself running backwards.

It would be interesting to work out the mathematical relationship between the crusher section shapes and the object needed, as here, to allow the object to "float" on top of the sections.
Somewhat OT but egg shapes can evolve based on their environment. The guillemot lays conical eggs that won't roll off the narrow ledges on which their parents place them...

I don't think that's actually reversed. I think that's probably a wooden egg that's smooth and light, and just the right size not to get caught by the teeth, because even running backwards a real egg would break banging agains the sharp edges like that.
Hard boiled???

I love a good reversed GIF mystery. It's like a more sophisticated version of a What's This Tool? thread.
I believe they are not so clever..!.
What? The shredder is not running backwards.
Ralph
I can think of a better way to scramble my eggs....
It does not appear running backward in the video, but it could have been with the video was shot. Then the video reversed to make the gif appear that way it does.Quote:

I'm with Hemmjo on this...could have been shot reversing and edited forward. The egg could be a solid or filled plastic Easter Egg but its size in relation to the tooth spacing is an interesting math challenge as Marv says. It does appear to walk upward (in the Gif) several teeth...I think. Conical eggs...mother nature at her best.
Looks like a tossup (or combination) between:
-A fake egg, whose shape prevents it from being crushed.
-A shredder machine filmed while operating in reverse, the video recording of which was then itself reversed.
Universal joint from a car shredder.

Let me try to guess where this is. Hmmm...195 countries in the world...could be any one of them...

Just the fact that he needs to lean onto the drum to get it started is scary enough...........
When our 2 day auction took place before moving from northern Illinois, A scrapper had a trailer loaded with what I thought was a lot of good stuff there was a 20 pound propane tank about 3/4 full in the pile. The guy had an oxy/acty torch on his truck and brought it back and blew a hole in the tank, when the hole opened gas started spewing out and burning, he just kept enlarging the hole so it would empty faster. I thought the guy was looney and said as much, he just laughed and said he had been doing that for 30 years. When I built a forge out of a 30 pound forklift tank, I unscrewed the valve and filled it with water and just torched the top out. A lot of people say propane is not dangerous if you know what you are doing, I don't. I am always thinking about my safety and others around me when I am doing anything and sometimes am overly confident and get reminded to slow down.
In many of those countries, if they found a NICE CLEAN barrel like that, they would be taking it home to store water. Would not matter much what WAS in it before!!!Quote:

I have long held that desiccating centrifugal shredders as used for poultry waste in a carpark outside government parliamentary buildings would be a great thing to incentivize politicians and those verminous bureaucrats to walk a straight line.
Far better than gallows or guillotines as the resultant powder can be easily stored and when enough is gathered spread by air over the seas which will feed Krill and save the whales.
How can that be running backwards when the teeth are pointed in the correct direction??
If you are referring to the egg in post #10 . We believe that the video was shot when the machine was running in reverse. Then that video was run in reverse to make the machine appear to be running in the forward direction. If you reverse reverse, you are in forward.
That egg was probably hard-boiled.....................................................
