Wow! thats a beauty. Do you plan to stuff with it also? My grinder from Northern tool works like a champ, but failed to do the job as a stuffer.

I'll give it a go at stuffing and see how it does, I have a LEM stuffer that I got at a garage sale if it dosen't do very well...

I will post some pics of it grinding/stuffing...

Alright, now we're talkin'
Makes my Cabelas Commercial .5 hp/#8 neck look like a toy!
Yea, grinders are for grinding, and stuffers are for stuffing.  When funds allow, a dedicated stuffer is the way to go. 
I've got a 11 lb Cabelas vertical stuffer, and added the motor last winter.  Wow, what a machine.  If money were not a factor (but it always is) I'd trade up to a Cabalas 30 lb so I could do a 25 lb batch in one stuffing. But refilling the container a couple times isn't that bad.

Great Looking Grinder...

[Jimmy]

Well as a grinder it does a great job, I ground 10lbs of beef roast in about 2 minutes..




And as a stuffer is does pretty good too, the only draw back from a dedicated stuffer is you have to continually feed stuff down the chute while filling the casing, but it did pump it out the tube as fast as you can feed it..

First snack sticks through it...

That is one good looking grinder.  I think there is something in the Bible against what I am feeling right now!

[NePaSmoKer]
