Chicken or garlic press, also crushing nuts, 2 1/4″ diameter, same diameter as meat tenderizer. Flat bottom allows for flattening chicken or fish as part of cooking preparation. FDA food grade, 304 18-8 stainless steel, made and patented in America. Set screw is 3/8″ x 16 tpi and you can use any of my mandrels to turn the handle. See Mandrel Comparison page to see all the mandrels and their attributes.
This is the only chicken press on the market where woodturners, carvers and metal artists can create their own handle making a most unique gift and retail product. It weighs a little over 10 oz. so with a handle it is heavy enough not to need a lot of pressure to flatten chicken or fish or to crush nuts and garlic. Also make a tenderizer mallet at shown in the picture; they are very popular.
*How to: drill a 5/16″ hole in you handle blank, either use one of my self-tapping mandrels or the 3/8″ tap to thread the blank. With the mandrel on your headstock, thread the blank on the mandrel, bring up the tailstock to initially shape your handle; this eliminates vibration. Finish turning, apply finish of choice. Glue the set screw in the handle using either Tite Bond III or CA. You want to remove the handle to put the tenderizer in the dishwasher and if the set screw isn’t glued in, with removing it often, the threads will wear thin and it will have to be glued in later.
*Tip: For selling at shows, make 6 to 10 different handles with the set screws attached and let the customers choose which handle they want on a tenderizer, cookie press or chicken press.

Tod Raines, Woodturning Tool Store –
I can say that the purchase process, the shipping timeframe and the packaging are all top rate. Thanks and well done. I bought several things but I recently made the meat tenderizer and chicken pounder kits. I used the off-center jig to create a couple of handles for the meat pounder/tenderizer. These are fantastic so I made a set as a gift for our family doctor (a friend as well).

I am very pleased with your products I have purchased. They are stainless steel, well machined, unique and very attractive. I do my work with carving files. So between a few hours a day, design, blank preparation, actual carving and finishing the end result is typically weeks in the making. Not all carving but lots of “glue and wait”, “finish and wait to dry”, “second coat and wait” – etc. So when finally ready to install the functional part, I sure want that to ADD to the project. The Niles SS parts are the perfect complimentary completion.

Thanks for making such great stuff. I have not turned the handles for the chicken presses yet but I love the weight of them.
