Hello, I'm looking for ideas please?
I would like to make my own manually operated (cold press) household orange juice extractor.
Ideally, it would be good to keep the pulp in the juice if possible to retain the nutrients, but I don't know how yet.
First thoughts were that the unit requires a goblet and a manually operated mechanical unit. The manually operated mechanical unit might require some type of gears and even bearings, perhaps including multiple shafts for strength. I used to own one once and the flex on the single stem was too much for the geared column.
I have attached a couple of images from Google, of the type of thing I mean.
