Is it possible to make paper-mache hard enough to cut with a jig saw?
The thickest I could make it is 1/4 inch and I need it to be as really hard so I can cut it to the exact sizes I need.
I am thinking about making the slabs in wax paper so I can peal it way after the paper mache dries. Do I need to use any special kind of paper or glue-mix, or will flour-water and newspaper work?
It might work if you used really heavy paper and watered down paste instead of the traditional flour-water mix.
Commercial Paper Shredders And Fun With Green
Since, the industrial world has been bit by the green bug, I wanted to write about ways to go further green using the commercial paper shredder. I don't anticipate you using all of the ideas, I will present, but even if you use just one or more, the environment will be greener.
Recycle. Most obvious one. Although, I was not aware until yesterday that not ever recycling plant will take shredded paper as its can be bothersome to their equipment. If they don't and you can't find one that will, please try another suggestion, below, to recycle in a different way.
Compost. There are numerous Web sites, which I have found that talked about how to mix shredded paper in the compost pile. It helps to aerate the soil, and can make the hungry worms happy as well. One of the best resources, I have found was Are we friendly with our life?
Confetti. If you are familiar with the crosscut paper shredder, then you probably know it is also called a confetti shredder -- for obvious reasons. The paper shreds resemble the shape and size of confetti. Get festive with your confetti shreds. But remember to clean up afterwards.
Packing. Save money on buying packing materials, such as those packing peanuts or bubbly wrap. Granted paper shreds are not as fun as the bubbly wrap, it's friendlier for the environment. I think this really only applies to the strip cut shredder, as the confetti paper shreds will probably infuriate the person you are sending your package to.
Dolls. Okay, this one has to be attributed to the blog entry called The Joy Of Shredded Paper. I discovered it yesterday. In the entry, he said that you can use shredded paper as "[l]ong stringy hair for paper dolls." That was funny and you know the guy had to be a father or an uncle. And yes he is a father.
Stuffing. Mmmm stuffing. Sounds good. Sorry, no -- not food stuffing. I came across another Web site yesterday that talked about how you can stuff "beanie" chairs and other such objects, but sadly, I don't recollect the site. Although, I would think that stuffing beanie chairs would not be plush and could make strange annoying noises.
Mache. I haven't made paper Mache in years. But I image if you had the strip cut shredder, you could use the paper pieces for paper Mache. Again, this idea came from the Web site mentioned above, that I can't remember where it was.
Paper. Shred the paper up and blend it with water and use some dried flowers, with dye, and make new paper. There are several Web sites dedicated to making paper, so you should be able to find it easy.
Those are several ways to recycle your paper shreds and be more greener. Hope you have enjoyed this blog entry and have fun recycling.
