A Multi-functional Cutting&Shredding Tool for Maker

The shredder-element consists of a sharp HSS drill, which are known for
their long durability. The bottle slicer can be easily fitted back to full cutting capability with a standard cutter blade.

The Mainbody Is 3D Printed and All Mechanical Parts Using Good Quality Ballbearings!

In most cases, any material is different in diameter or shape. For this
reason we have a fast-swappable System in form of various slide-tubes implemented.
