    Dr_Pain Thanks for the experiment, one of the reasons this sight is so nice, everyone has great information and I learn things I wouldn’t even thought about.

      Do they make a cool sound when firing out of there?

      I was actually disappointed that there was no guttural sound or farting type noise as they were being compressed but since the horn was still attached there was a “failure to launch”

        Dr_Pain is that the 11 lb stuffer?

        Mike, that is actually a 7lbs stuffer but I think the 11lbs has the same elbow size. I’m sending you a pic of the diameter measurement. Should be easy to see if that size would work for your application

          Have you ever been frustrated with the amount of mince left over in the elbow of your stuffer? Well I have.

          A week or so ago I posed the question on the board and got some inspiring response. As a result, and based on my background as a physical therapist, I took the suggestion of a “sacrificial bolus” and found a reusable alternative. I did some quick research and ordered some thermoplastic rubber stress ball and low and behold my problem was solved. The b@lls are BPA/phthalate/latex free, are soft enough to conform, but also resilient enough to be squeezed by the stuffer without breaking apart.

          I wonder if Austin and Jonathon would consider carrying some and calling them "Dr_Pain’s stuffer b@lls " ROFL!!

          Anyway, I made some snack stick this past Sunday and they worked like a charm. I bottomed out the piston, retracted it, pushed the first ball in the mince, bottomed out the piston again and added 2 more (same process). I should add that I did clean them with soap and hot water and sanitized it with a diluted iodoform solution (before and after).

          Enjoy the pictures!

              I find it interesting that the concern is left over meat in the throat meanwhile I still have 2 lbs left in the bottom of my stuffer. I use extra washers to put my plunger further down as a hack to reduce it to 1 1/2 lbs. Now what do I gotta do for a hack to get the rest out……thinking a new stuffer is in order.

                twilliams That is what it sounds to me too, that is a lot of meat left in the bottom, I would think the plunger should bottom out.

                  I have done the same thing with my stuffer

                  Give a man a fish and he eats for a day
                  Teach a man to fish and he drinks beer for a lifetime

                    Lol, that was probably in the list of default censored words. Probably fine for us to remove it!

                      Here is a test… Balls should not be censored anymore. We’ll see if it works.
