Paper Shredder Plate for Aurora AS1015CD - Fringe Case # 8765309 by RebelTaz

Our paper shredder quit shredding - which really defeats the purpose of running paper through it, but I digress. Upon disassembly, I found that the plastic plates that hold the shafts in place were completely worn out, with one being broken. Obviously, this is not a part you can run out to your local Allied Electronics and pickup, so I did what any self-respecting redneck does - I made one. Of course, I'm a high-tech redneck, so I used FreeCAD and a 3d printer, but still....

I seriously doubt anyone else has this particular shredder, much less this particular problem, but in any event... Depending on your printer settings, you may have to chase the screw holes with a 3/32 drill bit and then carefully thread the screws in, slowly going a little at a time, backing them out just tad each time to keep from cracking the plastic.

Of course... upon reassembly, I would seem to have lost on of the freaking bushings, so you may be seeing that replacement part here in short order unless, God willing, I can find that freaking thing in one of the hundred places I've already searched....

NOTE Due to either a Thingiverse bug or (more likely) shadowbanning, my models no longer show up under the [Newest] listings. If you want to see more of my models, please be sure to 'follow' me. If you print this, it would really help if you'd post a 'make' so that others could find this model.
