where did you get the grinder and motor and stuff?

[@Old_Blue_Shirt]

Motor and Pulleys? , i dont recall, but Tractor Supply CO has some, or Grainger for more options. Apple Grinder, purchased at a local Home Bew supply store. I had to install the shaft bushing. Belt. found on in my stuff and positioned the motor based on that.

Do you happen to have plans available anywhere?

[@battleminion]

Very nice woodwork, do you use oil in the wood? or how do you finish the wood to avoid damage from the moisture from the juice? Thanks

[@battleminion]

Thanks for the info, i will try to find that polyurethane, to aply it to my press

[@jmattbenham]

Beautiful design. Where did you get / how did you make the wooden press handle? Thanks!

[@SeriesIII]

Oak. It was made by turning it on a wood lathe

[@hansraske9500]

nice video and great woodworking. Where did you find the screw, base and handle? Can I get a vendor or parts number? Thanks

[@SeriesIII]

The screw is just threaded rod, 1" dia, 8TPI, threads per inch. the handle was turned on a wood lathe to fit into the steel tube welded to the threaded rod. The metal screw base is a 1"-8 steel nut welded to a 1/2 " thick steel plate. the plate is screwed to the underside of the oak cross beams. Up top is a guide block to support the threaded rod.

how did you do the scratter?

[@robert3302]

What do you do with the squeezed out fruit pieces? Compost or cow feed? Seems kind of a shame to just throw it away.
