About the challenge

[edit | edit source]

Build a simple handdriven oat flake crusher out of recycling Materials

Description

[edit | edit source]

Freshly crushed oats not only taste a lot better, they are also more healthy because there's no time for nutritients to oxydize. And it's also fun to do, especially children love it. This oat crusher can be made of only recycled materials. If you speak german, I recommend the leaflet "Einfälle statt Abfälle - Die Müsliquetsche" distributed by "Packpapier Verlag", which contains very detailed instructions. The detailed description you'll find if you follow the link contains all the compacted instruction for the fabrication and assembly of the machine.

If it helps you, you can also get the 3D CAD files (SolidWorks) of the machine as shown in the picture. Just contact me.
