Finally got a chance to get some meat to test the dryer, but it still didn't happen. Instead I have been invited to a butchery for a full demo of the process from cut to dry. This is going to be interesting.

Seeing as it's you Ian, if you mail me a couple of decent sized pieces I'll post an independant review for you

I'm interested what else you might be able to make in a biltong machine, there must be other cured meat products you can make.

IanF for presidand!

Most cured meats will need a smoker. Similar concept. Helps if there is heating element on floor over which the wood chips are placed.
Soak meat in brine, some injected with brine, some not, dry off, then hang in smoker.
Bacon, cabonnossi, salami, cheese grillers.

Drove wors suddenly springs to mind, but you need a minced and sausage filler.
