paper brick compactor for rocket stove

*This is a model you can resize. At 900%, it is used to test the compactor bricks process with small quantity of paper, to test if it is a good idea to put paper briks in stoves. i am testing it on a little size rocket mass heater. It is designed to fit a 160 mm bed. the handles have to be printed with 50 % or 100% fill. The other parts are good with 15 % fill and 3-4 shells. you just need four 3mm rods to finish the device. Place paper inside a big can filled with water. After one hour you get a paper marmelade easy to compact as bricks. On a real metallic device, it takes 3 days do dry. 50 hours to make 7cubic meters, this is the time usually necessary to split wood. if the test on this tiny device is ok, i'll buy a big one.
