Watching this thing eat IBM-PC's whole is COOL!
The 55Gallon drum is good too.

Please explain "spamming" as you think it applies here?

A second link to same commercial site within a month, without comments about
making ones own version (as this is a "recreational" "crafts" "metalworking"
group)

It appears to me as though you are advertising the site.

I call this "spamming", might not be 5 posts on 5 newsgroups in 24hrs, but
even so.

It's an interesting website, yes.

But I won't be buying.

Hm, I thought it was just some guy sharing cool videos with us.

I am not the Dave you have confused me with.

Well, one is enough to be spam, if it's spam. I don't see anything
particularly spammy here, and I don't see that Dave August is involved
with Acme Shredders or whoever it is. Maybe he's a clever shill, but
looks to me like someone just posting a cool link.

I don't think that was his intent. Maybe I'm wrong.

Hey Dave

Yer right, my intent was to share something I thought was cool with the
Mech-Heads here. I'm in no way connected with these shreader guys, a friend
sent me the link this morning. And if someone already posted it here, I
didn't see it.

Other Dave,

Thanks, I appreciate your sharing this with us. Cool stuff..

In that case, I apologise - too many late nights and too much sniffing of
coolant with no extractor fan is my (poor) excuse.

I used to help my dad build these... Not quite this big, but close...
Those are some serious monsters!

Hence the apology.

BTW, are you the same Eli the Bearded who used to run the ASSM archives?

Well... maybe you and Dave have formed some type of spamming conspiracy, and
are trying to entice us all into buying big honkin' shredders. One can't be
too careful when it comes to falling prey to machine tool spammers, I always
say.

I gots my eye on you two...

Damn, Eli, they're on to us. Back to the other place to refroup.

Three, sir. There's another Dave who is also a co-conspirator. Or
not. Damn, this is so confusing.

For what it's worth, I had 8 people around my desk today looking at
these videos. The pc-shredding one went over well (we're in IT),
but I think either the railroad ties, or the wooden pallets, were the
most impressive. Did anyone else catch the "medical waste" one, where
at the end, the guy runs his hands through the shredded results??!?!?

Yep. That would have made me nervous. One needle prick and you're in
trouble... I figured next they were going to show us how that thing shreds
plutonium rods.

I didn't really see the point in the diaper shredding video. One would
think that it'd be a good idea to keep those sealed up.
