Made sushi the other night.... Honestly of all the things you can **** up, you CAN'T **** up the rice.
Make good Rice, make good sushi. (In reality the word "Sushi" refers to the Rice, and nothing else.)
If you're using a rice cooker, wash the **** out of your rice until water runs clear, then only use a 1 to 1 ratio when cooking it in the rice cooker. After its done, take it out.
Microwave - 2 to 1 Rice Vinegar to Sugar (example 2 tablespoons of Vin to 1 Tablespoon Sugar.)
Take that out when it's done and slowly pour it over your rice. Then take a rice spatula (oh it's best to do all this in a big wooden bowl if you have one, if not a big ass glass bowl will work.) and use your rice spatula to "cut" the rice, don't fold it or "mix it..." Cut it so make slicing motions through it with the spatula as you use a paper plate to fan it cool. Don't put it in the fridge, just fan it to room temp with something flat while you slice it.
After that.... nothing you have sushi rice. Ta da.
Remember to have a little bowl of water with a little rice vinegar mixed in, next to you to dip your hand in before going to grab rice, or that **** will stick to your hand like concrete. Also if you plan on making the rice before you're ready, put a damp towel over that bowl and leave it someplace "cool" that isn't your fridge till you're ready.

If you're referring to the avocado then it's more closely related to a banana. If you're referring to the bamboo chute...well, I dunno.

As far as 'sushi grade' fish goes - my friend's father would always bring him deep water fishing for Tuna and Swordfish, at one point they were approached by a guy acquiring fish for sushi bars in NYC. He sold one biiiig ass tuna for $10,000 cash without stepping foot off his boat.
I assume the guy trucked the fish into the city and prepped it for use the very same day.

Yeah that's my only problem with homemade sushi.... I'm in Montana so finding sushi grade fish is kind of a *****.
but it can be done, and I've done it... Just takes luck and timing.

I didn't think freezing could kill any bacteria, only slow/stop its growth. But according to previous posts, it does.
Personally, I think the issue of mercury in tuna poses a more serious health risk if eaten regularly.
Mercury levels in fish rises as the fish gets older, tuna are among the longest living fish in the ocean.
Most tuna has mercury levels over the FDA safe level.

freezing fish kills parasites, not bacteria
bacteria stops growing, though, and bacteria creates toxins as it matures.
