We've been gradually acquiring the necessary equipment to start processing all of our deer at camp. Besides a decent scale, we're down to a stuffer.
I have a 5lb LEM and it works well, however, it will take forever to make summer sausage or even bag burger with just a 5lb stuffer and that many refills when we average 5 to 7 deer a year.
I like (or am used to) the position of the crank on the LEM being in back. It's easy to hold the casing on the tube and crank the plunger down. It appears that many of the Hakka stuffers have the crank handle on the side....facing you. This seems like it would be quite awkward to me.
Does anybody using this type of stuffer find it awkward or did you find that you just get used to it and it's no big deal?
