Happy easter everyone!

More development update on shredder.

Right now I am playing with different speed and direction change algorithms to see if it has any impact on overall shredding speed, blade cutting and motor life. It seems it is dialed in perfectly. Cutting through like butter of a 1mm thick PETG. It dynamically adjusts the motor speed and direction based on sensor readings and decides to increase or decrease the speed.

I also hunted down several UI related bugs and getting this thing slowly ready for pre-ordering status. The most pressing issue to tackle is solving the OTA software update mechanism.

At the same time I am constantly shredding around 150lbs of waste PETG plastic that we accumulated during prototyping stage to rigorously testing the blades and motor itself. So far, zero issues!.
