Step 18The Shred Bed
Once you've shredded your documents what next?
How about using the shreds to make your own improvised futon?
For initial tests we used giant drawstring bags. For comparison we filled one bag with crumbled newspapers to make a "crumple bed". Marion tests them out. Conclusions: It takes a huge quantity of stuffing to make a futon. The crumblebed is lumpy, not as good as the shred bed. The shred bed is very comfortable. Marion had just finished one of her final exams and took a nap right there.

Two things I know of that shredded paper is good for: packing boxes (alternative to packing peanuts) and fire (burns EXTREMELY FAST and at EXTREMELY HIGH TEMPERATURES)
