I know you are looking for an extruder to buy. However if you already =
own a pugmill why not extrude from it?
Even through the extruder has been around several hundred years. Artists =
have been limited because the manual extruder could only do so much.=20

What I have discovered is that by extruding vertical with an expansion =
box on a pugmill I am able to pug clay, extrude slabs and produce almost =
any cross- sectional shape I can dream up. Then when I combined the =
extruder with handbuilding or throwing the possibilities explode =
exponentially.
