This is already posted at the forum before, but I just thought I will put it here as well.
The original name of this project is “Hamster Shredder” but I think it might cause some people to confuse it with a hamster torture device! That’s why I’m naming it as Hamster-Powered Shredder here. 
It’s a clever little contraption that makes use of the energy from a hamster wheel to power a paper shredder on top of the cage. In the process, the shredded paper becomes instant nesting material for the hamster! Okay, I know there is concern about the ink from the paper being harmful to the hamster, so if you do get this device, do use plain paper okay? That kinda defeats the original purpose of being a confidential paper shredder though, lol.
I’m quite sure that this is only a proof-of-concept prototype, not in the market yet. Anyway, have fun looking at the idea!

so funny… the hamster got to wheel in order to earn its own bedding. No wheel = no bedding! =O
