Sushi Maker 202x43mm

As a family, we like sushi nori rolls.  Making it at home means we can come up with our own stuffings.  This sushi maker is a revision to my past design.  Perhaps not traditional Japanese, but we find it useful.  This design accommodates the following changes to my original design:
 1. Makes a narrower diameter (43mm) nori roll
 2. Handles a nori sheet of 202x190mm
 3. Includes a tamper to press a ridge in the initial sushi rice layer
 4. A frame to keep the nori ends out of the way as you apply the roll filling
 5. Longer handle for the sushi press

The sushi maker inside dimension are: 43 x 202mm.  The maker includes cutting slots, so a full length roll can be cut into 8 equal pieces.

The maker is in several printed parts:
 - Base frame
 - Press and handle
 - Tamper
 - Nori frame

The handle is secured to the press with two 6g (3.5mm) x 15mm stainless steel screws.  Here is my 3D design.  My design may match your needs, too.

A (over-simplified) roll filling guide:
 1. Place a sheet of nori evenly in the base.
 2. Fill a layer of 10mm sushi rice.
 3. Use tamper to press a ridge in the centre of the roll rice.
 4. Include filling (be creative)
 5. Place a 10mm layer of sushi rice on top.
 6. Use press to firm up the nori rice and filling.
 7. Wrap the nori ends together into a roll.
 8. Cut.
 9. Eat

My print is made in PETG 1.75mm Aurarum purple filament, with 0.2mm layer height and 15% infill on a PRUSA I3 MK3S printer.

I hope you can find this design useful, too.

Remember to leave me some feedback or even a tip to keep me enthused to make more of these drawings.
