okay so today tony and myself went up to bass pro i picked up some more uh sinkers and snails just
the uh consumable stuff that you lose every week you go fishing and we saw a french fry cutter now
we had one that we picked up at a local supplier uh which could have been home hardware but what we
found is like potatoes that are this size are about all that you can squeeze into there and
as you can see i'm having a problem putting this in and we thought would be nice if we could make
longer french fries using bigger potatoes rather than cutting the potatoes in half so we went for a
cabela's french fry maker
well it was on sale today well yeah it was on sale and mark is doing an unboxing now and uh thank you
and part of the reason for getting this is that i am going to use a lot more of french fries
canning french fries in the near future so this will certainly help make the job a lot easier
this one is a lot bigger but it does require some assembly so we'll get going on that
okay it does have four suction feet if you're going to use it flat on the table i understand
that this model also you can purchase as a separate option a wall mounting bracket but
we're not going to mount this on the wall so i guess you could also screw it into a butcher
block if you really wanted to if we had to put your block in yeah we don't i i would
hate to destroy a perfectly good butcher block by screwing a french fryer into it but i would
agree but if they were doing it but that's just me if you were doing hundreds of french fries
it might be worthwhile but yeah we're not yeah we don't we haven't opened a restaurant so far we're
not planning to do one in the future don't plan on a restaurant no way okay so you're assembling it
by putting on the suction feet first yep well that way i could i can set it up on the table
and do the rest of the assassination now i can already see that i can get a much
bigger potato into this one than the other one so this is looking pretty good so far
are you going to be cutting all the french fries for me mark of course
who else could you get to do that as long as i kill them right yep yeah
nice big handling
that piece gotta go there are there extra screws there someplace
well still trying to figure this guy out i think that we ah piece under here
this one has a circle on it i don't think i've got any circle
pliers here but i can usually force these things off and get them back on
there we are okay
i was going to give you this guys
that might have worked actually
and now trying to get this pin back in might be fun but it might be okay
yeah well you've got the little pliers there yeah i know they won't work okay
there we are okay okay just wanna take a look here and as you can see
lots of room there's a ton of room i can put a huge potato in this and make incredibly long
french fries they're a lot more fun to eat yes they are so here we go that's done but
since we have stew from the other day left over we're having that for dinner tonight
and my catfish and french fried dinner will have to wait until tomorrow sounds good to me cool
okay so we're done with the unboxing and then we'll deal unboxing and assembly okay
and that look looks really nice so far you're happy with it yeah you wanted one of these sliders
that reminds me of the they need lubrication it's like our meat slicer i was going to just say that
it's the same kind of sliders here and what i found with these is a little bit of uh vegetable
oil or olive oil on a paper towel and you wipe them down it relieves all the friction but these
seem to be fairly loose anyway so that might not be a problem with this what what about the special
grease that paul gave you for kitchen appliances well yeah you could you could use a food grade
grease okay but most people aren't going to have that kicking around but everybody's got a bottle
of vegetable oil on a paper towel so that is the easiest way to look after this okay sounds great
in addition to that if you put it with oil despite the fact that it looks like stainless stainless
it will never rust with an oil coating on it so there's that as well and we know some of the
products that are sold to stainless that look pretty good well they still get rust on them
okay sounds good thank you mark
