Will this item have problems piercing tough pork skin like pork belly or Shank?

It may take a little extra muscle on your part, but the blades are sharp enough. We haven't had a problem with any type of meat, yet.

I have not used it on these cuts of meat but it has done more than I thought.

I think it would damage it because it has a coating on it that would probably peel. It may be stainless underneath the coating, but I'm not sure.

I have had no problems. It will turn easily with either a thick or thin roll.

Yes, the auger design is the "Big Bite"... It works as designed. It also helps to cut your meat into strips rather than chuncks. This allows the "Big Bite" to catch it and pull it through the blade easier..

Yes should not be a problem. This is a great tool,and very durable. Good luck

I did chicken breast with no issue. Chicken is low in fat so there never really seems to be a problem. I sometimes run into issues when I am grinding hit fat content pork because the fat gets tangled in the blade and I have to stop and clear it out. I would still recommend this product though.

I would think that it would fit based upon how it attaches. There is a single bolt with a wing nut that fits through one of the holes in the vent. I can't speak to how durable it is. I've only used mine three times. But I can say that the overnight cook I did on two pork butts was a piece of cake. The temps were consistently around 235. Digiq is at least twice as expensive. Just saying :)

I would not recommend slicing anything that is dense and hard as a cooked brisket, but it may very well work on something less hard. I have used it on meats up to 1/4 inch and it works fine. I really wish I had bought a more powerful motor because after using this one only 8 to 10 times, it is showing sighs or wearing out.

no,it's pretty thick all over.It has a lil heft to it.It won't move all over just bumping it.just as heavy as are stainless ones

I wouldn't listen to my doctor but, it would probably be best to do so. This is a great leather and with a set of arm leathers, it would do well for slag. I use it for blacksmith work.

I think that it will hang up a bit on the beads where the mesh lines are welded. You can probably push it through, but it won't be like a hot knife through butter.

The exterior of the wok is textured with the exception of the flat portion of the bottom where it would come in contact with your range. That area, about 4 inches in diameter, is smooth except that it is engraved with "Calphalon Unisom Sear" and the dimensions. I doubt the engraving would interfere with the contacting surfaces, but I'm only guessing on that.

Yes, but you'll need a different shielding gas. I personally use a spool gun for my stainless, but it isn't required

I am not sure. I never tried grind fat scraps. I did not have problem with fat meat. I think if your fat will be cold it will work. hope this will help. Benjamin.

Metal. So far I have only ground game meat (wild pig, weighing about 180 lb.). Had to remove the "silver skin" first or the machine would jam in less than one minute. Ground meat from the neck and rump. Grinder worked fine once the silver skin was removed - a lot of work.

Yes it can with no problem, in fact I use the groove side for meats and the flat side for everything else.

I don't know. It might if they were cooked. I have only ground pork stew meat. The bones might be tough on the grinder
