Tim
my weston has metal tubes also
Hey Tim, purchased the Weston back in late 2010, a 7lb unit from Cabela's.
The stuffer is a two-speed, all-steel gear system lets you smoothly stuff and quickly refill. Includes three funnels (10mm, 20mm and 30mm) for stuffing everything from largediameter summer sausage to breakfast links.
hey guy's, I got the 11# weston and it came with plastic tubes, weston was good about sending out new tubes as the one we use a lot was cracked and I was concerned about cleaning it good enough, didb't want any bugs taking up residency the crack, new ones and they had the same scratch marks however no cracks, I would love to find a metal set of the tubes, as for the stuffer I think it's great would reccomend it to anyone. Tim
