Just Added a New 7# Weston Stuffer to My Equipment Herd!!!

I've got a Cabelas 20# stuffer with an electric motor, but wanted something smaller for 5# batches of sticks and sausages.

Gander Mountain had these Weston 7# Vertical Stuffers on sale for $139.99, so I snatched one up. 

All Metal Gears

2 Speed Gearing

Aluminum Plunger - Other Stuffers Use Plastic

13mm, 20mm, 30mm, 40mm Stainless Steel Stuffing Tubes

Cover

Thanks for looking!

Todd, I have never seen one of those in person or used one, but it sure looks like a heckuva stuffer for that price!

Congrats!

Good luck and good smoking.

Congrats on the new stuffer!
We have a #5 and a #25 and the wife thinks we need a #15..... it is never ending!

Very Interesting!!!!!

I put a magnet on the main shaft of my new 7# Weston Stuffer, and it's steel

My stuffer from Cabelas has a set of steel gears, and an aluminum shaft.  I often see aluminum filings after stuffing.

Steel Gears, Steel Shaft and an Aluminum Plunger....It's A Winner!

I remember you having problems with that stuffer....  Sounds like that design flaw has been corrected....   

 .....  I'll bet you are very pleased......    Dave

Yes, I like the new steel shaft and aluminum plunger,  but my old motor will not work...DANG!

Not that big a deal to have one of my kids help

Not a bad thing. A family affair. I love teaching the young ones. Just another legacy we hope to pass on.

Dang I need to get a stuffer!

  I REALLY want to make some sausages.  Are you happy with this one Todd? Would you buy it again if you had it to do over?

 

[tjohnson]

Yes, It's A Dandy!

Used it this weekend to make 40# of snack sticks

Worth every penny!

Gander just raised the price back to $179.99

For a couple days, they were running $20 off while the 7# Weston Stuffer was priced at $149.99 + Free Shipping

Keep your eyes open for another deal!

Thanks Todd! I think it is the one I want to get. I like the 2nd speed for raising the plunger, steel gears & shaft, & stainless steel tubes. The cover is a nice extra as well. Thanks again

I have been looking at stuffers on Ebay.Thay have some that style in SS going for good price don't know how good that are.

 

[tjohnson]

Which one on Ebay?

Post the link

Most of these stuffers come with a 13mm tube.  The OD is 9/16", and won't work for 18mm casings.  You need a 3/8" or 10mm tube.

I happened to have one from my Cabelas 20# stuffer that fit

Here is a thread about one for you to check out http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/119315/mtn-sausage-stuffer-anyone-have-one

 

[dave turner]

Thanks smokingB Took a look may have to rethink it.

 

[smoking b]

You're quite welcome Dave

  I remembered reading that thread a little while ago when I saw all the awesome sausages people on here make & decided I should get a stuffer - which still hasn't happened  

   - it will soon though!!!

I actually purchased this same stuff back in November.  I had been using my grinder to stuff vension for snack sticks.  I will never go back to the grinder again.  I did some research and did not want anything with plastic.  This stuff has steel gears and that is what I was looking for.  It makes stuffing much easier and much quicker.  It is rather easy to take apart and clean as well.  The cover is a nice bonus to leave it on the counter and protect it from dust.
