Hey guys, salut, this is Alex, welcome back to the

croissant series, in this vid I'm gonna build a

brand new version of my dough sheeter.  And there are

So, reason number one: that tool is possibly the most

tool when you're making croissant dough, apart of course

from the oven, which might be the first one, or

the fridge, which might be the second one, so

it would be the third most important tool -  what do you want?

And the second reason, which is a little more sad, the

previous dough sheeter machine that I built in episode 4 of the croissant series

has been damaged, it's basically f---ed up.

Due to it's rennovation, it's been shaken

it's been moved. It's not working properly anymore.

Since this machine had quite a few problems

in the first place--I did struggle a lot inserting those

and now it makes the precision... basically not precise.

This machine is just too big. It's just using this, but

regarding this (motions to screen). That bar is here

to make sure that those two driving gears will move

synchronously and will make the tray move back

I'm gonna address these problems, but one by one.

went for just because it's amazing diameter.

When you're working with a 4mm dough, it just makes like

So instead of going for a complicated solution

I had this one for a while in my studio--it's perfectly round

and perfectly straight.  Of course it's promising if...

So this is the part that I just designed.

So it connects to the rolling pin like so:

Which means that it's automatically and perfectly centered.

Then it's going to be secured using four screws.  Right there.

That's great because instead of transmitting the torque

to the axis, I'm gonna directly transmit it to the

key.  And that's great news but it also means

that I need to do another design because this would definitely

not fit in what you just saw.  So lets start again.

-assorted sounds of getting down to work-

Truth is, I've been working on a new design

Hopefully it's much better.  Let me run you through it.

And then I'll just assemble all the parts.

So overall it's more compact and making good use of the gears you just saw.

There's a driving axis which is not in the way anymore, and that's good

And the tray is now on top of the driving pinion and that's great.

it works the same, you spin the whole arm like this

and to set it in place basically you use a little pin

it just blocks the system in one setting.

Now those two pieces are connected, like when the tray is moving then
