Can you help me identify this piece of equipment?
« on: May 06, 2013, 09:15:58 am »
I know that it is some kind of restaurant press but not sure what kind.







Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Looks like a sausage 'press' to me , xatiayn .

Empty casings (intestines) would be placed on the outlet & hand force (via the hand-crank) would provide the oomph to extrude the ground meat/etc. into it .

Thanks for the help! I really had no idea what it was for.
 I don't think strawberry sausage sounds appealing at all. But I will try (most things) once.
Lol
Much appreciated!
