In this final paper will be discussed construction and making of a hazelnut drying plant. The method of construction and installation, the way it works, the operation of the plant, maintenance and the reason why it was necessary to construct such a plant. Recently, there has been a chronic shortage of nuts on the Croatian market. With a significant increase in aid, the number of hazelnut plantations also increased, especially on small farms. Already with the first major crops, the problem of fruit drying was realized. Industrial plants are too big in terms of capacity for family farms, they simply do not have that much production, and they are also too expensive. It was necessary to construct a plant that would be acceptable in capacity, characteristics and price to farms with lower production, plantations of 1 to 2 hectares. The plant is designed so that due to the simplicity of each part, it is possible to make it in the "homework", of course with knowledge of the basics of mechanical engineering and having some tools. To a lesser extent, turning work and bending of the sheet metal for the tank on rollers are also required.
