Fatty Cannon, piston, press, whatever you want to call it. Got mine out to use so thought I'd post it here. All PVC. 2" for the barrel (10" long), 3/4" for the ram rod (14"). 2 slip fit ends caps, (2) 3/4" reducers, (1) 1 1/4", the other 1 1/2". No glue needed but you could if you wanted. Fill up the tube with whatever you want. Compress with plunger, leave about 1 1/2" of space in barrel. Put saran wrap on ends and place in freezer for a while to firm up. If you go to long run hot water over outside of barrel. Using ram rod push out filling.



1 1/2" cap for the hand side of the ram rod


1 14" for the jag side of the ram rod


Assembled


1 1/4" jag end fits perfectly.


Hand end does not!


Filled up. I have 4 barrels total


Push the meat out. If I was doing a fatty, I'd push it out right onto the sausage.


 
Is your middle name Ingenious?

That is a cool gadget.

I imagine this only works for all-meat fatties (not rolled with cheese, vegetables, other meats).
 
It can work with other ingredients also. Mix up, tamp down, slight freeze, press out.
 
Case looks good,I still have a box of 2" plastic bags

I suppose one could use this to stuff summer sausage too. Make a longer tube and stuff away.
 
Did you do anything to prep the PVC in any way prior to stuffing?
