CEB instructionals to be transfered to Make Projects CEB instructionals CAD Requests
Unless otherwise noted, all steps are independent and can be done in any order.
Simple plates
Good to start with, all you need to do is punch/drill holes.
Structural Supports
- Leg Holders
- Legs
- Feet
- Needs 4 Leg Holders
- Arms - primary-
- Arms - secondary
- Needs 8 Leg Holders
- Grate mounts-
- Hopper supports-
- Needs Soil Shaker (this should be dis-assembled, although you can do it assembled, its just heavier and more difficult to maneuver.)
Soil Loading System
- Hopper sheet metal-
- Hopper mounting plate
- Soil grate-
- Soil Shaker motor unit-
- Soil Shaker - needs fab drawings
Machine Core
Frame Preparation
Assembling the frame
You'll need to have finished all other components in Machine Core and Frame Preparation and 2 Leg Holders
Hydraulics
Assembly
Before beginning assembly, insure you have finished all of the components listed above.

Final Assembly and Job Site Setup
Programming
An Arduino is the microprocessor that controls the CEB Press's actions. It must be programmed with the CEB Press's unique program for making bricks.
