Taffy puller?

OK. Anyone ever use a taffy puller to aerate? Wonder if it would be easier than pulling by hand…
Maybe they make a small/mini one?
Just a highdea. Lol

I never got my batches to be big enough that even the smallest one I could find would be able to wrap 3 times around the taffy puller. So I always ended up kneeding and pulling by hand.

Sure would be cool if there was one that wasn’t quite so big. I don’t imagine that my batches will randomly be 10x as big.

Basically offset counter rotating hooks

I’m going to see if I can have a friend design and 3d print me something that could hook onto my kitchenaid…
I’ll post the prints, pictures, designs, and such here if it works out. He’s a lazy sob so idk how long it’ll take him… lmao.

It will need a gearbox as the kitchen aid has one drive shaft that needs to turn into 2 drive shafts spinning in opposite directions
