Weird Green Inventions: Turn your office shredded paper to toilet paper!

Known as the White Goat, this green invention allows you to convert normal paper into toilet paper. Simply insert about 40 sheets of paper, and in 30 minutes you’ll receive a freshly made roll of toilet paper. The machine shreds the paper, dissolves it in water, thins it out and then dries it and winds it around a roll.

This bizarre invention stands 1.8m tall and weighs 600kg. Additionally, although it costs you about a dime per roll to perform this alchemy, the machine itself costs $100,000. At an average cost per roll of about 60 cents, you’d have to produce 200,000 rolls of toilet paper before it pays for itself. AND If the machine were left running 24 hours it could create 48 rolls of toilet paper a day, which means it will take a little over 11 years for it to pay for itself.
