      We have a shredder and the thing needs to be oiled once in a while. However, it seems that some oils are very flammable (duh) and when you shoot the shredding “claws” while they rotate, they apparently can create a spark and light the fumes.

      I was reading posts on Warp10’s computer while he was doing just that, when a big whoosh! went up behind me. Result: my hubby no longer has hair on his knees and top of the lower legs, and on his forearms.

      Oh, and he stinks too.

      I think I need to up the fire insurance on the house!

          Agreed! That could have been much uglier! And thanks for the tip. I have a shredder that needs oil too, but I oil it at either the beginning or end of the day when I know no one will use it.

            Har, yeah, you’re also not supposed to spray canned air into them for the same reason. There is special synthetic shredder oil that is non-flammable, I think a 16oz bottle cost me $8 and it lasts a long time.

            But there no fun in that.

            Sparks and compresed air make big fireballs. 😯

                I am not, in any form or way, discounting PURPOSEFUL DESTRUCTION.

                You’re talking to the guy who can get a shopping cart up to 70 mph.

                70mph?! Do you hook it up to your car? 😀
