Juice Press building finished

Together with Michi and Thomas (from http://altungna.de) we built the frame press in 2 days for producing juice from local fruits/vegetables. Making wine is also important.

The test run made with old car tyres worked well (we thought, that the tyres show a similar behavior like the used press mats).

We was afraid, that the slide will stuck on the sliding tube, but that will not happen, if the force of the jack attacks exacly in the middle od the slide.

The hydraulic jack can apply a force of 10 tons and the press should be able to bear this.

The height of the upper frame (the workheight) is various and is fixed with pluggable bolts.
