I'm looking into build my own honey extractor and found this simple design on youtube by Pete's Bee Shed. What do you think of his design? Do you think it would damage the frames and/or the comb?

My prototype design is a little different then his. The second top plate would be spring loaded to hold the frames in.
I currently have one hive.
