Now comes the main objective of our project: to create paper pulp with our Pulp Pro. We're using standard notebook paper shredded into small bits to make it easier for Blade to break down.
We added craft white glue to act as a binding agent for the pulp.
Finally, we added lukewarm water, placed the base body assembly on top of the jar, attached the blade to the motor, and set the timer for 1000 seconds.

After running the motor for 1000 seconds, we get a Fine-grade pulp in which all of the paper is finely blended to form a paste-like substance that can be used for making handmade paper sheets, paper sculpture and other creative projects. Using glue helped the pulp bind paper together, and the entire process took 1000 seconds, which is far faster than the usual method of soaking paper in water for half a day and then mixing by hand to produce the same grade pulp mix.
Using this pulp, we first form a ball and remove extra water from it by compressing it in our hands, which removes the majority of the water from the pulp ball.
We then flattened it on a smooth acrylic board and made a naan- or Pizza-like shape that was extremely thin. After letting this dry in the sun for a few hours, we have a sturdy piece of custom-made paper, which is great. We can use this paper to build a little cover for a notepad or get creative and design things like greeting cards, bookmarks, and more.
Our goal of creating an instrument that would make this process much faster and more refined has been achieved, and we will now use this device in an upcoming project that will use cardboard to manufacture little germination pots. More on that in a future article.
Overall, this project is now concluded and requires no further revision.
