Maintain the timber by keeping it away from direct heat sources and fluctuating humidity, cleaning gently with a dry cloth, and occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to nourish the grain.

It functions effectively as a sculptural object of curiosity, often displayed on a plinth, bookshelf, or table as an example of historical engineering and industrial design.

Authenticity is determined by tool marks left from hand-chiselling and cutting, natural timber ageing, historic wear patterns along the thread pitch, and the density of the hardwood.

These pieces were typically hand-carved from dense hardwoods such as walnut, oak, or fruitwood, using specialized taps and dies to cut matching internal and external threads by hand.

Wooden screw presses were traditionally utilised in Europe from the medieval period through to the 19th century for textile production, paper making, bookbinding, and fruit pressing.
