LEM #5 Meat grinder with box and accessories .25 hp, used in good condition

Description

up for sale is our LEM meat grinder, it is in working condition but I just needed to upgrade as my meat cutting endeavors have increased due to the growing family and helping friends. I have ground  dozens of deer, wild hog and  lamb. stuffed brats and made my  famous venison potato sausage with this unit. It still grinds and stuffs  well, but has limitations  due to the size it is.
So I will start with the  physical negatives:
-  missing the 3/8 inch plate
- the plastic cover for the switch is broken
Positives:
- extra set of stainless stuffing tubes
- Near perfect condition
Mechanical this is sound and runs as it should. runs on a standard 110 outlet
the  .25 hp is a bit  slow on meat, but I can  grind a deer ( 15-20 pounds of the trimmings 1 time through) with the unit in about 1/2 hour. stuffing or filling the  meat bags/tubes adds time ( but a better way to freeze i found)
the meat has to be  just at the frosty mark to grind (cut)  really well.  if  thawed it can mush not chop if you feed it too fast. too frozen it  just does not have the HP to cut through the meat at a fast clip but can take small pieces. this is not the machine if you are going to toss a whole frozen shin into it and hope that it cuts it. the throat diameter is small and  the HP is too low.
I have found  strips of meat feed very well. Also sinew can be an issue if you skip the  pre-grind step. I  could get away with grinding  my meat 1 time with the smaller plate and be fine but I always cut my venison lean and trimmed  the sinew off and had  the grinder work very well- but  grinding a friend's deer who did not trim the sinew it bogged down the unit  and we had to clean the  blade of sinew  multiple times... "Pay me now or pay me latter".  The internal breaker works and  just takes a  minute to reset if you overload the unit.
when warm there can be a few drops of oil on the back.
unit is clean and was put away sanitized for use again. But I  went for a bigger unit. Kind of hate giving it up as it was a gift in the family- but we can't keep things for ever.
I am willing to meet in Wisconsin Steven Point  area this fall for delivery ( on my schedule) Appleton in Nov.
Spee-dee delivery  will greatly reduce the shipping to  areas they serve- wait for an invoice
the unit weight in the box is  32 pounds, I will overbox the  factory box adding a couple extra pounds.
