that grinder has ground a lot of stuff. still use it. not cheap but lots cheaper than one of equal capacity ready made. that motor I bought new at a farm store. was sold for use on a grain auger. bought the belt tensioner at the same store. its parts for a garage door.

Its still dark out Yes Sir. I don't remember what its rated at now. Works on 110. When the sun comes up Ill go out and look in the shed at the tag. If I was going to sell lure and bait I'd want something lots bigger but for personal use and maybe a little bartering here and there its a dandy.
FWIW in the picture that five gallon bucket has ground whole fresh shad in it

Bob a hatchet gets stuff small enough some bone isnt a big deal. hide and fur stops it up worse. have to drop in small pieces at a slower pace than grinding just meat. Like i said works great on a few gallons for personal use. way to slow for comercial use. takes the better part of an hour to grind up five gallons of meat bone and hide.
tag says 1/2 h.p. with 115 volts. can also be wired for 230 and i gues that would increase the h.p. tag doesnt say

Just hook up Industrial Strength Heavy Weight Grinder with Tractor PTO (Power Take Off), you can grind up about Anything! Maybe not an elephant but close! Then reduce the mass with the smaller 1/2 HP, 3/4 HP, 1 HP to 3 HP Grinders! Large production put out set-up! then load up the large container holding vessels! You would be surprised what hydraulic power can out produce! Another Fur Boom is coming gotta be ready!

I went to cabelas for a new blade. They had one that fit the plate but not the square end of the grinder screw. I filed the grinder screw end, a little at a time, off each side, one at a time, till the new blade fit. works great and replacement blades are not an issue now.

a cordless drill and a piece of 180 grit sand paper makes quick work of a dull blade it also trues up the plate

Reminded me of an article in Trappers World bout 10 yrs ago......I think it was OGorman ???, who bought a grinder from Nelson ???,,powered by a Chevy 4 cyl motor! He could throw entire beavers and bobcats in, sans heads, in LOW tranny gear.

x2 Hobart = maybe 7.5 HP, (PTO) = Enormous HP, ate a man up back long ago, very tragic accident, (Be Extremely Careful/110% Alert) If built right WILL be Safe! 4 Cyl. Gas/ Diesel Block Engine with the correct motor mounts = 170 Horse Power with Zetec, may wish to reduce the Gear Ratio = Enormous power! You'll be finished by Noon, while everybody is sharpening grinder knives (tungsten carbide) China junk, you'll be All Packed Up! Any of those (2) WILL laugh at a Hobart! You could use a big block 454 HO, GTO, Chevelle block engine with Good Motor mounts, blocked in, rivaling @438 HP @5300 RPM, punching @ 500 LB/FT @3500 RPM, may beef it up a bit MORE, just special order a covered dump truck full of high-grade mice, you'll be punching them critters out within a few minutes or less! Just do some fine tuning, you'll be in good shape! Simple as putting one of them half moon steel buildings together! You don't have to look for parts, The Big One comes in a Crate, Cash & Carry (Cash & Delivery)! A REAL Beauty! http://www.chevrolet.com/performance/crate-engines/big-block-454-ho
