So I've finally finished full redesign (or making from the scratch to be true), printed and assembled the new version of rice washer. It is smaller, have better look (I hope :) ) and is much easier to assemble after print (less details and no gluing/filament welding required).
It fits about 150-160 g of rice which is more than enough in my opinion. It is also fully printable - even its mesh can be printed (but you can also use one bought in store ofcourse).
The only thing you need to buy is pair of 6000 plastic/ceramic bearings (10x26x8 size) which are used for smoother rotation of drum. You can get them from AliExpress for example (I've got these. Works like a charm :) ). You also can try to use 3d-printed ones like these ones (tried them but wasn't very happy with the result. Maybe my printer isn't perfectly calibrated :) ). Please note that we should have as low friction as possible to make device work as expected.
