After the apples have gone thru the shredder the pulp falls into a "barrel" like sieve made with slats, no ends.
The hopper holds about one bushel of apples. The shredder is turned by hand and has a 20" fly wheel geared up to keep momentum while apples are fed to it thru a hopper. It has two parts, one part is the shredder and the other is the press. As near as I can tell it was made circa 1850 and when completely assembled it weights about 400 lbs. Since most of the wood was badly weathered away I was still able to use the worn pieces as patterns. Last summer I restored an old apple press that was kept behind my barn. The cider got pretty good after about a week in the cold cellar. This mill was hand cranked, but hasd also been retrofitted to run off an electric motor. The sides, top and bottom were also cast iron with a sheet metal baffle to guide the apples to the drums inside. The shallow grooved roller also was geared to run about 3 times faster than the deep fluted drum. These pulverized the apples more than ground them. The fancier grinders used a pair of cast iron drums with ridges about 1/4" deep on one and about 1" deep on the other. The juice squeezed out into a wooden tray with built up sides and a lip on one end where the jug went. All this sat in a cast iron frame with about a 1-1/2" buttress thread screw. A wooden lever was used between the bosses for the last stage of pressing. The press screw was turned using a large handwheel with 4 round bosses sticking straight up. The press barrel was wooden slats set about 1/8" apart in the steel hoops. The apples came out in about 1/4" pieces and went into a pillowcase and from there to the press.
Both drums were driven by vee belts from an appliance motor, one drum about 3 times faster than the other. The drums were mounted on shafts and on bearings so that the nails would overlap each other and go down between the space between the drums. They were canted so that they leaned into the grind. The rolls were two wood cylinders with nails driven in at an angle about every 1/2" all over the drum surface and sticking out about 1/2". The crudest is a plywood box open on the top and bottom with plywood baffles to take the apples to the center of the rolls. There are three or four mills distributed among the relatives. Also glad to see that they finally released the ships.My wife's family is big into making cider. Glad to see that bombers got more attention over the years with cockpits and improved sounds and all that.
BIRDS OF STEEL BARREL ROLL FREE
I'm a free to play player through and through. Notwithstanding I always loved to unlock new bombers or exotic premium planes through free events. Now that they extended the timeline farther after the 1953 limit they had once, this is even more evident. I realized that they have little intention to add anything into the game except more vehicles. At that point I dropped it because I'm more of a PvE person and not very much into PvP that War Thunder focuses so much on. I just have not played this game in 5 years I think. I mean that, when you play them, do you get rewarded with eagles and make any progress toward unlocking new vehicles? I bought it a few years ago when it was added as 1 purchase I don't know why you need to buy each campaign separate now Thanks for the answer. Originally posted by Anderson:Do you get any rewards/progress if you buy/play only the campaign? Each campaign, Japanese and American, both come with a plane, golden eagles and a premium account for 15 days (30 total if you buy both campaigns).
