Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
The garden shreader blades are dull and won't cut. The screws holding them to the carrier are siezed. I've managed to get the carrier nut undone and got the carrier off. I've soaked the blade screws in penetrating oil. I can always drill them out and re-tap the holes if they won't undo. The shreader is a discontinued model and the spares are ridiculous prices: £7 for a blade, £25 for the carrier, even £1.70 for a single blade screw.
Looks like I'll be sharpening up the existing blades on an oil-stone.
