There are three protrusions from the bolt holes that hold the upper burr in place, and then there is the angled step down to the smallest diameter within the throat. I bet that there is residual build up in the bottom part of the throat, right?
I like the concept here, but its way overkill with the thickness of both parts.
Haha, the thick aluminum billets were the only thing I had in the garage :-P. It's a straight shot into the grinder and the plunger is not too heavy.
If the plunger weight becomes an issue, I could easily lighten it.

What are the diameters/thickness there? I'd love to make my own, or glad to pay you to make it!

Great idea and well executed. I have a Vario but my uncle with a Mazzer Mini just puts an old tamper over the hopperless hole :D Your solution is better.
