Abstract

See full text

A configurable device includes a body, driveshaft, plate and driver. The body includes a receptacle, recess, and axial bore. The receptacle is disposed about the bore, and the recess is disposed below and in communication with the receptacle. The receptacle is to receive a pasta strand and communicate a portion of the strand into the recess. The driveshaft includes a first portion and second portion. The first portion extends through the bore, and the second portion extends into the recess. The plate is secured to the second portion and includes a surface having a radial projection extending toward the recess. The planar surface is to abut the portion of the strand in the recess. The driver has an axial opening to removeably engage the first portion. The driver is enabled to rotate the driveshaft that in turn rotates the plate causing the projection to break the portion of the strand.
