New Sausage Stuffer Build is done.....

Awning Guy · Posted: Jul 30 2012 Post subject: New Sausage Stuffer Build is done.....

This project started out with a Scuba tank and a Trailer Jack. (No, drugs we not involved on the concept.) I came up with this idea with a Buddy of mine and had some help from a few of my Students at the College.

We named it PISSED Presure Itensified
Sausage Stuffing EngineeredDevice.

I got the tank on Craigs List for $20 and bought the trailer jack on sale for $25. This one was a cheap build. It performed well overall. I need to make a small modification on the tank. it needs a clamp to hold it down when stuffing. Other than that, I took about 4 minutes to stuff the 12lb. capacity thanks to my Cordless drill. Cool

Hers a link to the start to finish

Awning Guy, that is a work of art.
I like the beer in the classroom idea. Not too many students skipping, eh?

shape the piston end to match the taper on the housing and you will reduce the left over meat to about whats in the stuffing tube.

Oregon smoker Thanks Man. It was a fun build.

RodinBangkok Good observation, Your right. The piston being flat and the tank round wastes about a pound of meet. I knew this going in and decided to go with the current design, I intended doing large quantities of sausage at a time and figured I would have some patties for the next day.

If you look close there is a pull pin on the front of the tank. Pulling the pin detaches the tank and in the dishwasher it goes. The piston is held in with a nut and bolt. that I hand wash because i'm not sure if the dish washer will screw it up.
