This tool can allow people to improve their quality of cooking without the need to buy specialized tools. All that is needed is a 3D printer and filament. This ricer also have the option of changing out the mesh to produce varying sizes of riced potatoes. It can also be used to rice other foods as well.\n\n== Bill of Materials ==\n\n## Food-Safe 3D printer filament. 149 grams ($2.98)\n## 5 (size) nuts and bolts ($0.75)\n## Link to part files[https://www.youmagine.com/designs/potato-ricer]\n\n== Tools needed ==\n\n# [[AthenaII|MOST Delta RepRap]] or similar RepRap 3-D printer\n\n== Technical Specifications and Assembly Instructions ==\n\n# To assemble the printed parts, the nuts and bolts are used to: 1) attach the ricer plate to the ricer body 2) attach the ricer arm to the ricer press and the ricer handle 3) attach the ricer handle to the ricer body.\n# Printing Time requirement: 7 hours and 14 minutes\n# Assembly Time requirement: 5 minutes\n\n== Cost savings ==\n\n# Estimated costs: $3.73\n# Commercial equivalent $9.20 [https://www.homedepot.com/pep/Classic-Cuisine-Potato-Ricer-with-2-Interchangeable-Disks-HW031037/304242148?mtc=Shopping-BA-F_HDH-G-D29B-29_29_HOUSEWARES-MULTI-NA-Feed-PLA-NA-NA-Kitchen_Tools&cm_mmc=Shopping-BA-F_HDH-G-D29B-29_29_HOUSEWARES-MULTI-NA-Feed-PLA-NA-NA-Kitchen_Tools-71700000053156025-58700005102355536-92700046592911969&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI156j_Yyg5gIVhsDACh27GQfiEAQYAyABEgKW8_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds]\n# Cost Savings: $5.47 or 60%\n\n== Benefited Internet Communities ==\n\n* DIY [https://www.appropedia.org/Do-It-Yourself] [https://web.archive.org/web/20210324130846/https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY/]\n* OSAT [https://www.appropedia.org/Requests_for_3-D_printable_open_source_appropriate_technology]\n* [https://www.lumberjocks.com/forums/13 Hand Tools]\n* Rep Rap (for 3D Printed Linear Actuators).
