vinny1892 Posted April 1, 2018 Posted April 1, 2018 Im looking for some plans for a corning maching. Ive seen the tumbling one that uses screens and billard balls in a tubling drum. Didnt intrest me. I like the one that uses aluminum rollers that crush them to size. No idea on the specs for the drive motor.... hope someone here can help me thanks.
Arthur Posted April 1, 2018 Posted April 1, 2018 Lots hangs on the aspect ratio of the pucks. The Royal Gunpowder Mill at Waltham Abbey (UK!) made pucks about a foot square by half an inch thick between stacks of metal sheet in a very big press. These could be corned very easily between simple rollers. I've always wondered about making more moderate pucks dome shaped, half an inch thick, two inches diameter, but with the middle half an inch away from the base. This way a simple flat press should corn them nicely.
