Looks wonderful and not at the least anemic like the commercial ones.

That looks great Big Guy! I'd never seen a ham press before and I think the use of a 1/2" Milwaukee Hole Hawg is a stroke of genius. Great set-up! RAY

Looks good! And where the heck did you score one of those ham presses? I have been looking for one on the North American continent for a while and no luck. Seen a few on German eBay, but they either did not want to ship to Canada or the shipping cost were excessive.

I'll have to pass. I'd be all over it if I had more folks to cook for. RAY

That's me! What would I ever do with a ten pound loaf of sandwich meat? I can feed the two of us for a week on one chicken.

There are always a bunch for sale on German eBay.
This is what's available today:

The problem is the darned shipping.
