Wine Press

A grape / wine press with a volume of just over 11 litres.
Customisable via the openSCAD files, use different sizes of planks for the barrel, a different number of planks etc
A 3d printer enabled project as some woodwork required!
In use the 12mm threaded rod through the center has locknuts top and bottom. there is a captive nut on the top paddle. Rotating the threaded rod, with a big bar, screws the top paddle down and compresses the grapes. The bottom paddle is held in place by 3 bottom retainers, it (and the compressed cake) can be removed by rotating the base.
