Default Paper log maker

[Second try at X-post!]

I am considering a paper log maker - one of those things designed to

squidge
damp paper into papier mache bricks.

I was prompted to this as a result of buying a shredder to get rid of old
bills etc. so as to guard against identity theft.

I looked at the shredded paper and thought 'Probably safer to burn it'.

Followed by 'Hmmm. paper logs'.

I can find them on T'Internet

or

I talked to a local shop who used to supply them and they said that they

had
gone out of fashion because of the amount of work you had to put in to
create a single log.

People liked the idea, but soon got fed up using them.

So has anyone got one?
If so, do you use it regularly?
How long does the log take to dry?

Finally, any sources cheaper that the ones posted :-)

TIA
