Definitely. Last week I made a tortilla press after breaking my cast iron one. Yesterday I made a batch of flour and a batch of corn tortillas because my wife doesn’t like corn tortillas. Today I made another tortilla press.

When everyone was making bread during covid I made some tortillas. I have a reputation as a prepper. My wife was confused why I wasn’t going out and buying everything. After eating some tortillas she said “so you can do this all the time. This is why you aren’t out panic buying. Because you can pull this off in an hour instead of 8. Why aren’t we eating tortillas every day?”

Scrap 2x4s, a large bolt, a dowel, some deck screws, a little glue, table saw, bandsaw, jig saw, drill press, drill

I can’t attach a picture without a 403 error.

Are you the guy that made a tortilla press for his 3yr old? I saw this on Imgur and it made my day imgur.com link.

I had no idea homemade tortilla presses were a thing, but I guess they had to come from somewhere before mass production
