They have an Oster countertop model for $59. I'd love to buy it, but I've got a working toaster oven, so can't justify the expense. Anyway, if someone's in the market, this seems to be an excellent buy! For someone buying a new oven (in the US,) I’ve noticed that Costco has a great deal on convection ovens.

It is possible there is some sort of lubricant on the rollers. Try wiping them down with a paper towel soaked in rubbing alcohol. If that doesn't help, let me know!

It seams to be racting to the clay. I've cleaned it and cleaned it but if I even touch the clay to the rollers the clay turns grey. The rollers seem to "sweat" the oil like stuff after the clay has been on them. Do you have any ideas? Angela The pasta machine is brand new. It seams to be racting to the clay.

Sounds to me like you have a dirty pasta machine. It is actually quite easy to clean your machine but you have to do it the right way. I have done a full video tutorial on it, that's in my members library. If you click the link by my name you will be able to see a preview clip of the video. But you will have to become a member you to be able to see it in full. The info on how to do that is under the video box. For a quick tip, when you do get streaks on your clay, you can wipe them off with a paper towel soaked in rubbing alcohol. Hope that helps! Oh Angela, I hate that when that happens!

I bought an Amaco pasta maker but it's streaking my clay. I've tried 5 kinds of clay and it does it with all of them. Due to physical limitation, I won't be able to work with clay if I can't use the pasta maker. Any ideas? Thanks so much! I need help! I bought an Amaco pasta maker but it’s streaking my clay.

Even though I have taken a couple of classes locally, the instructor went so fast trying to cram as much into the time as possible… I was overwhelmed and truthfully don't remember all that much.
