I'm in England so I doubt it would be economically viable to ship anything here from your Sausage Maker people.
Good use of the word 'Arnold' by the way lol. I hope that didn't mean that between grinding beef you felt the urge to slip into the servant's quarters and father a child!
I'm still leaning towards the electric type mincers, as I'm a lazy critter, but I like the idea of good honest toil and a machine that little can go wrong with.
Maybe the fruits of my labour will taste better, when pulped by hand? Who knows. It's like a fire built with axe chopped logs always makes you hotter than one built with chainsawed logs (because you're hot from the chopping).
Actually this is nonsense. I sawed up a load of logs for my dad back in July and what with all the protective equipment I was wearing (especially the helmet & ear defenders) I was sweating like a blind lesbian in a fish market!
