My friends and I have built 3 sausage stuffers just like this one out of spare # 32 grinder parts and other stainless parts we could find like the 4" stainless steel milk line I found will hold 6 #s I use it mostly for making snack sticks because the 19mm tube they give you with grinders simply will not work without turning the meat into mush, Made a wood frame for it clamp it to the table and away you go.
