I have a load of notebooks etc I would like to scan and then dispose of. A guillotine capable of doing books would be really useful for me. I don’t know if the current one would be up to this?
Frustratingly I would be happy to try and help move it but am only available outside of normal working hours.
I can access the office this weekend if that makes transport easier
The current one absolutely cannot do books.
I can help move it but I cannot drive.
I would also very much appreciate a guillotine, even at the lasers as I cut a lot of cardboard. I’m happy to donate to fund an UberXL. Could we maybe put it in that now empty-ish corner behind the bicycle area for the time being?
As mentioned earlier, the legs are removable.
The legs can also be disassembled.
So, from a transport point of view, the main issue is the weight, not the size.

Thanks!
@danielbenton proving once again that he keeps this place from falling apart.
@danielbenton you legend, thank you
Thanks everyone.
By the way, sorry I left it kind of in the way in screenprinting, I wasn’t sure where else to put it. As Brendon says, the bottom base comes off and it can sit on a tabletop since it has rubber feet on the bottom. The main top part is very heavy, too heavy for one person to move around and use by themselves, so hopefully someone has a great idea for storing it or integrating it into something.
Thanks also to Brendon for giving it to us 
This needs a tool page with the risk assessment etc.
Can someone with the necessary knowledge volunteer?
I can probably do it when I come in this week.
It is, much smaller than I had hoped and had a mental image of somehow.
It’s good for books but it’s still far too small to be useful for print making sadly. I still think we should find a space for it though.
@iNerdier have you been able to sort out the risk assessment for the new guillotine?
I’d like to give it a go with some small notebooks
Not yet. It works though.
I’ll be in on Thursday to try and come up with something.
Ill also be in tomorrow if youd like a hand.
