I've got a slicer exactly like the one Ophelia posted of hers. It all comes apart and is easily cleaned in a sink of hot, soapy water. The actual body part that houses the motor get a thorough rubdown with a well rung out soapy dish cloth. |

I was buying single-heel half loaves from a baker in the 80s. And they were far from a new thing then. == I've seen small loaves in the shops with 2 heals.

My old Rival workhorse can be thoroughly cleaned in under 7 minutes, perhaps not by a drunken NY pervert; but, even the "one-armed man" from the old TV show, The Fugitive, could do it in under 8. But we don't have cat fur to contend with in our goods to be sliced; that might complicate things. === Please tell me who you were responding to? Who has a slicer like mine?

We'll need a meat vacuum tumbler, too. The perfect accompaniment to a professional meat slicer when making deli meats. This one should be about the same price as the meat slicer. https://www.waltonsinc.com/promarks-...vacuum-tumbler You could thoroughly pickle 20 whole pork butt in about 25 minutes with that thing. While I'll be turning briskets and navels into corned beef and pastrami. -sw |

The automated slicing comment was in reference to Sqwertz original post that he wanted a slicer that you put food on the tray, turned it on and it automatically moved the tray back and forth to do continuous slicing without hands-on. == Yes, thanks ![]() (non automatic) one ![]() I am happy enough with mine. It is easy to take apart and wash, as someone else mentioned ![]() It is getting a lot of use atm. I got fed up with buying packs of pre sliced pre cooked meat for sandwiches. I worked out the price and it was horrendous. I bought several joints of meat, roasted them and sliced them and froze them in packets. It is just as easy to take out a packet for sandwiches as go shopping to buy a packet ![]() Did I say, my husband loves cooked meats for sandwiches ![]() Actually when I had a good read on the back of those packets ... at least mine is the pure meat without all the rubbish they put in with them. |

I have no idea who the intervening post was from, it appears to have no name associated with it. == Ok ![]() mine ![]() |
