Subject: Extractor construction - any new ideas?

I was thinking about making my own (small) honey extractor and wondered
whether there were any articles etc on new ways of making extractors, eg
* making the shaft horizontal
* making the outside out of a flexible material so the whole thing could fold up
* using one of those Black & Decker Workmates (those portable benches) as bases

etc etc; also anything on the physical requirements (eg what speed is
required to get honet out of the comb?)

Anyone done anything like this?
