My tofu press is great, but it only works with the standard size brick you get from the grocery store. The asian food market carries a thicker brick and my press just can't handle it. Since the other dimensions are the same I decided to make an extender to fit the larger bricks.
Printing:
I recommend using PETG because this is now (semi-)permanently part of the tofu press. Meaning I'm using it with food and putting it in the dishwasher so PLA won't hold up. I also printed this piece with 100% infill so that I could make it nice and thin while retaining strength.
Print on it's side for the most strength and no waste material. When on it's side it is 50mm tall.
IMPORTANT: I made the hole narrow so that it would fit snugly on the metal hinge piece from the original tofu press. If your machine isn't super accurate, then I would recommend adding some space to the hole. You can do this in Cura by adjusting the "Hole Horizontal Expansion" setting to a positive value.
