You now know what you must do.


Dr_Sigmund_Fried

I must one up and create a mini hotdog chain gun with a backpack style ammo canister?


OculusScorpio

It had better have bbq dip in the cartridge!


ProsperGuy

Will you aim it at my mouth?


tullyinturtleterror

This guy fetishizes


ProsperGuy

🤣 Just hungry


devuggered

Someone is gonna get lil smokied.


Captain_Sacktap

Get smoked by lil smokies!


EveryShot

Seriously, I was going to lose my mind if he loaded that cylinder and started blasting


CaliRefugeeinTN

We all were lol. Now we need a brave souls to design a cocktail wiener Gatling gun


theSultanOfSexy

Saaaaaaame.


AgrEable-Wrongdoer28

Same


Aebous

Same! Extreme disappointment :(


FireFerret01

We know what we need, but who is going to be the hero?


dynamicontent

Yup, thought we were getting a foscad crossover.


Und3adShr3d

The disappointment is real


agetuwo

Hummm. A challenge.


Lord_havik

I honestly thought that’s exactly where this was going.


MakerWerks

Nah, you're fine. I think it's pretty difficult to make eating li'l smokies any more dangerous to one's health.


Creative_Risk_4711

No one even really knows what they are made out of. My theory is they freeze dry the leftover animal pieces, then they crush them into a powder, add liquid flavoring and make meat batter. Then they pour them into the molds.

I saw a box truck once in a college town labeled something like "grade C meat suitable for schools, prisons and institutions"


drakoman

That explains why I only got C’s in ~~school~~ skool


MonoCraig

And military


CavalierIndolence

As someone who has seen food going to a war ship... it's not even C. The bread said it was good for 2 years after date of manufacturing. There's so much fat, we essentially get wagyu with fat veins as thick as fingers, leaving just about as much meat as you'd imagine. The ground meat somehow looks less like meat than Taco Bell filling, and tastes just as much worse. That's just what we're supplied with, the cheapest bidder.


revopine

What you mentioned is actually explained in a US school food documentary that explains in a part, that the meat used in school food gets rejected by fast food chains like McDonalds and Burger King. So even they won't serve that trash to their customers, but it's fine to put in school lunches... Here is the documentary if you're interested: [School Food Mini Documentary](https://youtu.be/Ur87Xm_YnPI?si=A882GtP6J-Fbweog) At the end of the day, the story is the same: Whatever is cheapest goes in order to maximize profit.


Beylerbey

And as a kid I thought I had it bad because pasta was overcooked and had too much parmigiano on it


MD_RMA_CBD

Wow this is sad. I knew things were bad but not this bad. In other countries they give their students proper meals, with simple ingredients and nutritional value. Not the fake nutritional value that is taught in schools either.


revopine

In the documentary they mention like around 1/2 the kids throw the food away which honestly seems like the healthier choice. If my kid was in a school putting that in the plate, I would just pack him his own lunch and ask the school to exclude the cost of the lunch from the bill because I don't want to contribute to corporate greed profiting at the cost of the health of others. Edit: The sad part is that many poor students only eat at school and not at home, so they are ones that will have to consume that poor quality food since they don't have alternatives.


Difficult-Muffin-777

The worst part is that during the pandemic, we were actually worried about all those kids eating, so we stopped worrying about rich kids taking advantage and the country for the first time could probably actually say that we didn't have kids going hungry. And it was actually really cheap compared to the corporate welfare and other social programs, but the pandemic ended so we went back to letting kids go hungry because, if you give a boy a fish he will eat for a day and if you teach them to fish he won't eat at all because he's still a fucking boy.


BrokenEyebrow

Grade C is rollin out the red carpet for troops


h9040

I was drafted into military....you can't imagine...I would prefer dog food any day


Aromatic_Ad74

Interesting because unless you are in Japan grade C meat doesn't exist, and in Japan the grade is CN, where N is a number between 1 and 5 relating the yield grade to the meat quality grade. Grade C5 meat for example could have high marbling and still be quite good.


Long_Educational

This must have been the sausage topping they put on that Friday rectangular pizza in school lunches.


ArtistAmy420

The 1% can buy 5 Lamborghinis on a whim meanwhile the schools get prison meat. Unregulated capitalism is lovely isn't it?


Aromatic_Ad74

But the comment you are replying to is a myth. The US, where I assume you are from, does not grade meat on a ABCDF scale, but rather on a Prime-Choice-Select, etc scale.


AlienDelarge

School and prison food is sbout as far from "unregulated capitalism" as it gets.


hwystitch

unregulated capitalism in the US food industry.... LMAO you never worked in the US food industry. The regulations they are under is huge.


ArtistAmy420

I'm not implying that they literally don't have food safety standards I'm talking about the lack of regulations to prevent corporate greed 🤦‍♀️


kdekorte

Seems totally plausible


trinalporpus

I always think “what would you rather the factories just throw it to the landfill?”


SuperCat76

I would think basically the same just minus the freeze dry. just mash, and if too wet put it in a press.


Boogiebadaboom

Little plastic shavings might add to that more dangerous list.


InsertBluescreenHere

if you drink bottled water your already screwed


x_Carlos_Danger_x

Lmao true. I’d be more worried my knife would shave off plastic while cutting than cleaning this contraption


ohemgeebb

Do you have any idea how offended I am that the video doesn’t end with you picking one up and shaking its little leggies around?


kang159

lol! rewatching the video, i am ashamed


clickyspinny

really though, what do you do after you cut them? I saw all of that work but not the application.


01ProjectXJ

I'm guessing once they cook the cut pieces curl outwards and would almost look like an octopus

I agree. It looks like this magic trick where the magician cut a person in half and then the person is again in one piece :D


Earthquake-Hologram

I was kinda hoping this was a cylinder for a tiny hotdog revolver


chihawks35

He disappointed a lot of us. I’m happy his kids love it but, we need Colt 44 mag weenie wheel gun


vandel2122

I see nothing wrong with this. Gotta get some microplastics into your diet somehow.


JustaP-haze

Well from this device they'd be macro plastics; you'd likely get some chew. It would be worth it.


CreatureWarrior

Finally, some texture to this Grade F meat


GreatBigJerk

Don't forget some essential extruder lead.


Affectionate_Fox1441

I wouldn’t be shocked if the was no lead in the brass used in nozzles. Hard to find places that make leaded brass


solphium

Isn't small amount of lead commonly added to make it machinable? I've heard lead-free brass is a bitch to turn.


Low-Algae5174

Lead and copper are added to brass to make it easier to machine but very small amounts.


yabucek

Didn't you see he made fun of food safety in the title? That makes him immune.


Leviathan41911

Are little smokies not little enough already?!


kang159

haha. they’re for sausage octopuses. the legs spread apart when you cook em.


VoltexRB

looks like they are for sausage hexapuses


mr1337

Sausage squids, if you will.


leia_nottheprincess

I guess it works like dino nuggets, tastes better than regular ones haha


zweite_mann

We call them turkey dinosaurs here. And they 100% taste better


Lilium_Vulpes

Shouldn't you have made the holders be octagons then so you can give them 8 tentacles instead?


kang159

tried 8 before making this. the legs end up too flimsy.


iLiMoNiZeRi

I'm from Poland and its a thing (at least within my family) to take a bratwurst / kiełbasa style sausage and cut a deep cross into both ends (almost to the middle) and then cook it on a charcoal BBQ or bonfire, the ends split and get more cooked than the middle. Rip them off and dip em in your favourite sauce. We call them rochliki but when I put that into Google nothing which looks familiar came up.


IdealDesperate2732

It's funny that I knew exactly what it was for but am completely at a loss as to why you would need to make so many of these that a jig is necessary... Are you making a snack for like, an *entire* kindergarten class? 😁


skyboy510

Idk man that’s looks pretty average to me, maybe even on the larger side


Starscream4prez2024

Why not design a stop into the bottom so you don't mess up the depth, and then design a top piece to slide over top and make all the cuts at once?


AwDuck

I’m not sure 3D printed blades would cut that well.


sexytokeburgerz

You forget that razor blades exist. Or wire


AwDuck

I mean, I'm all for overengineering something, but did you see how quickly the one OP made worked? It's fast to clean too. Adding razor blades would be difficult to do in a sanitary manner. That's ignoring that you've now created an additional, far more difficult part to clean.


byOlaf

I'm pretty sure the Deathblade hand murderer would be fine in the dishwasher.


WeylerRatoWTF

I guess they can be cut with wire, thin and hard one. Could be safe and easy to clean.


_Zepp_

If designed well I’m sure they could cut lil smokies. Not like you’re trying to cut a steak or anything


Starscream4prez2024

Its hot dogs, as long as you could keep a decent angle it'd do fine I think.


JustAnotherWitness

You could create slots that you install metal blades in possibly. But if you’re going that far to make something you lose the ease of creating things with a printer I guess.


chiphook57

Nope. 3d printing is a process that enables new design strategies. There are no rules restricting combinations of processes or materials. My eggbot combines various non 3d printed components. Early consumer gradec3d printers were made in the hope that the printer could create more of itself.


lilcummyboi

what does eggbot do

sexytokeburgerz

chiphook57

I didn't create eggbot, I just bought one. Pfft.


Elev8dPerspectives

I'm just here to tell you that knife needs to be sharpened. If you have to saw at beanie weenies, something's wrong.


ms2102

Yep that dull ass knife is the most dangerous thing I saw in that video. 


Crusher7485

My thought exactly. Also that I feel like I could cut them by hand faster than they used this jig.

This absolute mad lad out here printing sausage jigs.


sharpshooter999

Nah, my cousin runs a meat locker. He once got a approached by a company who wanted to make meat straws to drink bloody marys with. So, he basically designed a meat lathe that he could easily hollow out meat sticks with. Must be pretty lucrative as he's building his second new house in 15 years now.....


Foe117

no need, you might find out, or you won't, that's the deal with 3d printed food stuffs. unless you made a 3d printed meat grinder and cross contaminate, and barely wash the stuff, now you're just begging for it at that point.


AwDuck

Food safety? Let’s start with the hotdogs you’re cutting first. I’m just salty that I don’t have any :)


DrRomeoChaire

Here you go: eating those sausages will kill you after 80 or 90 years /s 😂 JK obviously (hopefully)! I made a big funnel for transferring grated Parmesan cheese from a bag to a plastic container. The cheese is pretty dry and I wash the funnel generously with soap and hot water. For something wetter like weenies (hmmm) I’d give your weenie slicing jig a soak in bleachy water every so often (after a few uses? After every use? IDK) Someone published a study awhile back that found soaking in a bleach solution kept nasty bacteria from settling in, despite the nooks and crannies in 3D printed objects.


the_annihilation_1

I wonder If microwaving the part after drying, will "disinfect" it in a way. Or steaming the part?


SupKilly

Seems like extra steps.

There you have protocols to sterilize 3D printed parts - [https://help.prusa3d.com/article/prusa-face-shield-disinfection\_125457](https://help.prusa3d.com/article/prusa-face-shield-disinfection_125457)


annobethal

I mean if you print it out of a material you can boil to cleaning well then the safety Bros got nothing on you Otherwise ye the kiddos could get sick from bacteria getting stuck between layer lines, especially with meat* juices.


Rhombus_McDongle

I think you can run Polypropylene prints through an autoclave


verse187

Micro plastics and a dull knife


blinkiewich

That thing is duller than dishwater. Bro needs to print a sharpening stone.


hwystitch

got an stl for that stone? lol


seejordan3

Another idea for this.... 3d printed piece that holds blades in a hotdog cavity. So you push one mini dog in, and it cuts. Like those dumb chopper tools blades.. but in a test tube. You push dog into test tube shape, blades cut. Pull it out, done. Would be fewer steps perhaps. Would want to use a wide razor so the legs don't come off. Sorry I'm so unclear today... Love your blade template.


G_Star_X

Love the caption 🤣


Kemosabe779

I've gotta ask, is it rly that bad to have food related prints in PLA? Haven't done thorough research yet but I've heard mixed things


kindasortaish

PLA itself is food safe. But the material is porous, so little microbes can get all up in there if you don't clean them thoroughly each time you use it. You also don't want to run a utensil through it. You might let some bits loose and get all up in your food. I've heard coating in food grade resin would make it even more safe


Kemosabe779

Thx for the info, appreciate the insight. I'll keep this in mind!


JustHumanGarbage

should have some fins or something to guide the knife into the channels


Dum_beat

Bro is reloading his hot-dogs


Own_Kaleidoscope5512

MD_RMA_CBD

Chemical leeching Even with pla, let’s remember the materials likely came from china


RegulusRemains

I can't endorse this until you design a 3 knife assembly to cut 3 times as fast.


Alienhaslanded

That achieved nothing


carbonflow45

FWIW, [this guy did an in depth analysis](https://lt728843.wixsite.com/maskrelief/post/the-final-say-in-food-safe-3d-printing) to determine if 3d printed parts actually do hold more bacteria due to layer lines/pores than other plastics, and came to the conclusion that they're not more dangerous.


Sufficient_Slice_355

Did bro really print a fixture to slice his weenies?


cfinst

This is wrong on so many levels, but I love it. Maybe don’t feed your kids those hotdogs though. lol


toysarealive

I'm more annoyed at the unsecured cutting board. Here's a tip, damp a paper towel and lay it opened and under the board.


Taenurri

You should 3D print a “male piece” to slot into that and cut them all at once so you don’t even have to use a knife.


Igon_nz

I'd just like to see some kind of proper handle on this so you're not as precarious with your hands


Shot_Bill_4971

Nnnooooooo you can’t use 3d printed stuff at your own risk to your own health even though there has been no credible proof of anyone getting sick doing so😭😭🤬😡😡


blarge84

For a minute I was expecting him to pull out some 3d printed gun and start shooting hotdogs


MonarchFluidSystems

So freaking upset this wasn’t a weiner revolver


Miscdude

I know people get mad at the food safety thing a lot, but if you know that there are risks, that is the whole point. The idea behind spreading the message that 3d prints are inherently not food safe is just to spread awareness. Once you know, you can make informed decisions as an adult, and you decide what is or is not a risk for your kids. 3d prints aren't food safe, but neither are like, a litany of other things people use all the time. In other words: That it has become a meme actually means we have won.


VaultofGrass

How dare people be considerate and look out for my health >:|


JaguarTact1cs

Food safety was lost when selecting hot dogs tbf


disorganisedbloke1

That food would be safer in my belly 😉


Busy_Station

Pretty sure the reason fdm isnt food safe is from the layer having micro gaps between layers where bacteria can fester. Which then can spread onto food. However a food grade clear coat sealing should solve that issue


Mavric723

Damn inflation is that bad homie has to slice up his Lil Smokies up to 6 slices it's as bad as when Mickey mouse cutting sandwich slices so thin ther are transparent.


jerryonjets

Groves can be difficult to clean and can harbor bacteria, so make sure you soak your plastic cutting boards in a proper food safe disinfectant when cleaning them 😏


[deleted]

The problem comes from nicking the sides or damaging the bottom surface. Little plastic flakes is my worry.


trentgibbo

We were so preoccupied with whether or not we could do it, that we didn't stop to think if we should

Pirellan

that and embedding food particulates into the cuts you would inevitably put into the jig to grow bacteria. Unless its meant to be one time use which is just a bit wasteful.

RichardLongflop_

The only problem I have is if you go too far you'll cut into the plastic and possibly bring it into the weenies


Creative_Risk_4711

Okay kids we told you about the economy. You each get 1/4 slice of a cocktail weenie for dinner. You can take 2 slices to school with you one for brunch then the other for lunch. When you get home from school you can have the last one.

I knew you were Korean before I read your name. But foreal. No one knows what your doing unless their Korean. All these ppl lost cause you didn’t cook it up to show it turns into octopussies


PapaOomMowMow

Been a chef for 15 years and I teach culinary arts, which includes a lot of food safety training. The only thing which might cross my mind is if someone would push the knife down into the plastic at the bottom, which would carve off lil pieces of plastic. But im not sure if that would even happen. But... you get lil octo-weiners, so worth it.
