Build small wood crusher

OK,

If the wood looks green, or if you know that it is pressure treated, do not use it!

Used to be that they treated the lumber with arsenic. I am not sure what they use today but I am sure it is nothing that you want to consume!

Been giving this thread some thought. I wonder how it would work if you built say a 12" x 12" wooden box about 12 inches tall. Cover the bottom with a stiff expanded metal screen. Then pour the grapes into the box and somehow force then down through the screen with a plunger. Having a bucket under the box to catch them as they come through. Has anyone tried something similar to this?
