People grab their family's and head out to the field to collect this delicious treat. Post pea picking families are challenged with hours and hours of work of shelling the peas by hand. This manual rotating pea sheller enables families to decrease their time processing their peas and more time cooking them. The pea is inserted in one end and rotated. The pea is forced out of the shell and the shel exits out the other end. All by rotating the handle on the side of the pea sheller.\n\n== Bill of Materials ==\n\n# BOM\n## PLA Filament ($20 per 1 kg)\n## Duct Tape\n## Epoxy (to ensure good function)\n## Clamp to brace against table\n\n[https://www.youmagine.com/designs/manual-pea-sheller Check all the OpenSource Code and STL files on YouImagine]\n\n== Tools needed ==\n\n# [[AthenaII|MOST Delta RepRap]] or similar RepRap 3-D printer\n# 1.75mm PLA Filament\n\n== Skills and knowledge needed ==\n\n* 3D Printing Capability\n* Obtaining Peas to Shell\n\n== Technical Specifications and Assembly Instructions ==\n\nPrint Estimates (All components 20% infill unless noted)\n\n# Base Model: 80 grams of PLA, 5 hour print (Note: Base was printed in 3 pieces because of personal 3D printer issues, please print base as one piece)\n# Gears x2: (Total) 12 grams, 46 minutes print\n# Handle: 27 grams, 1.5 hour print\n# Roller x2: (Total) 38 grams, 2.25 hour print\n# Rotational Inserts: 16 grams, 1 hour\n# Top Rod: 9 grams, 54 minutes (100% infill)\n# Bottom Rod: 8 grams, 47 minutes (100% infill)\n# Total PLA: 200 grams Total Printing Time: 12.2 hours **All estimates using Cura\n\n<gallery caption=\"Manual Pea Sheller Components\">\nImage:BOM Assembly Components.PNG| Image of manual pea sheller components\n</gallery>\n\nEstimated Assembly Time: 1 Minute\n\nAssembly Instructions\n\n# Place Gear, Concave down, (1 of 2) and Small Rotation Piece (1 of 4) onto the Bottom Rotational Rod (Smaller)\n# Insert Bottom Rotational Rod Assembly (Step 1) and insert into lower holes of Base component.
