Pitmaster T has Globe 685 Slicer

[Pitmaster T]

Along ass time ago I bought a Globe... whatever with no blade shield or face plate. Cost to replace those things? $300. So.. it sat


Lately of course, on my way towards an Italian Beef/Guadamalan Birria style sandwich or taco... i decided the best meat for this was a low grade rib eye lipon I can get consistently for $4.14 a lb.

Thus... I finally got one. $200. Every part on it.

Thats what happens when you take pictures holding your phone vertical. Old fuddys on here think they still have a Motorola flip phone.

If anyone could use a slicer every way except for right side up, I knew it would be you Donnie! :laugh:

NO. I BOUGHT a functioning one that was cheaper than the part which was missing on the first one.

lol

Slicer parts are stupidly expensive.

Does this one have enamel on it or is that paint? I have a Globe 75 that is still working great.

I found this site for parts if you need it.

there are two. the first one, off white, is from the late 1940s and i forget the model. i have not used it. like i said... the part missing costs more than the newer one (685) i got.

the second one has no paint, that is either polished aluminum or stainless or chrome u see... even the motor cover.

This is the company, the only one, that had my part. Thus... 7 years ago, and now, the cost of buying those parts (tie rod $20, knife gaurd $200, and center plate - I called, its $300) would be $520. Then the tranny has too much play in it. You can get a new one all day at $750. So... I just bought this new one that works perfectly for $200. But I did look for like 6 years.

Pictures of my Globe 75. I broke the weight on my sled that holds the meat down. Hope to get one by the end of summer. You did get a great deal on the "new" slicer.
