Homemade cheese and cider press

Step 6Gluing together some boards for the trough

Gluing together some boards for the trough
To catch the finished cider, I built a trough that runs the length of the press. A bucket is placed at one end to catch the finished cider.

After running some of the oak boards through the planer to clean them up, I clamped and glued them together to get them ready for the trough. After they sufficiently dried overnight, I cut them up with a chop saw. The trough is 13" wide with 5" sides. The trough runs the length of the press (about five feet or so) and sticks out some on each end.
