i know some of the stuff is high.
they have grinders now that are 100 bucks and electric .
but the hole the meat goes through is small and causes the temp to go up in the meat from heat from the grinder i have no problem with them though.
as for cutting boards i have a cheap one plastic got it from walmart for 12 bucks
but when it comes to uncooked meat epically deer meat i use a independent board for my meat and i wont to have three for butchering

as for the table you could go to Lowe's buy a lam. counter top for 50 50 bucks or less and build a cheap 2x4 frame
i plan to buy stainless or some kind of metal for ger control
for the meat tubs thee 20 bucks for 3 tubs so i figure it is worth the 20 bucks for them
as for the knifes i have a size star cutlery set i got from ronco great knifes you get like 40 knifes for 50 bucks with shipping and now there buy one get one set free i like them plan to buy a set next month

you do not need everything i listed a smoker you can get for50 bucks but i plan t smoke alot of my deer meat as well as make my own porkham and bacon so i would use it all yearsame with the grinder and stuffer

i plan to spend every penny i listed might take me some time but i hope my the ed of next season i have must of it might evensee about taking a butcher class and start doing it for other people
the house next door is forsale and i am thinking aboutbuying it because it is 10 feet from mine and the lot would be great for apool and 2 car garage and if i do the current garage will be come my hunting/ butcher area ihope if the ours house cheap and since the foundation is gone and needs redone and the cement porch is falling off i think it willbe
