POWERMATIC II.....tube stuffers owe it to yourself to try this one.

After a few RYO machines over the years, the PM2 is simply amazing. After a couple months and a couple dozen cartons of smokes, this machine is completely worth the investment.

Only "drawback" thusfar is the handle gets a little stiff on the lifting motion, after about 1.5 cartons. 2 drops of propelene glycol (i have read vegetable oil works too); one at each corner of the "blade" will make it feel and work like new again. The quality and consistency of my RYO smokes is now so much better.

Taking a break helps also. There was an article at RYOmagazine.com about rolling too many at one sitting. The injectors will get gummed up. Taking a break will let the gum get semi hard and gets pushed out after you start back up again. I think the same is true of the shredders. I shred a half lb to a pound at a time and give it a break. I've no issues. I also have the PM2. I agree. It's a great machine. Just don't use the stuffer or the shredder like they are commercial machines and they do fine.

Ive never had that problem. I some times stuff 3 cartons at a time. I put a lot of casein and topin in my bacca. The PM 2 is a great stuffer. Some tubes dont work as well as others for me. The one that works best is golden harvest.
