Sauerkraut is stored, usually under the yoke: dipped into a bowl of the wooden circle and pressed clean washed and scalded with cobblestones.It turns out that you can do without a heavy load, if you use our advice.
The figure shows that the function of the yoke executes a rubber shock absorber. You only need to make a special circle with a vertically mounted in the center a wooden stud in the upper part of which there is a narrow groove.

Instead of shock cord that are used in power expanders, you can use rubber rings cut from inner tubes.
