Some *******s never learn eh. This easter I am contemplating having
another go at some rought home made cider. I am trying to get a
better
(cheap) rig together. Benchmark is this guy

He spent 40 euros apparently. Should be able to do it cheaper than
that.

40 euros!! bloody spendthrift.

I didn't quite get what he made the press cage out of (Damn ears are
failing me.). The cage is what gets the pressure, with little support.


frame was wooden, screwed & gang nailed.
A bottle jack
A couple of old wood turned spindles
Some mdf cut for a pressure board


An old drum to take the apple cake

What does an old drum mean?


I took it to mean a 'bang bang' type drum. I assume it is a wooden with the
skin taken off.

If it is metal I guess the joker would've been aware of rust etc.

I am using a plastic bucket.
