Re: Electrolysis Tank - Newbie!
K_Leonard, check Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist. There are often old, manual chargers for sale on there for reasonable prices.

Re: Biggest Haul Yet - Lots of Work Ahead
Nice haul. Sometimes it happens that way. In the front stack of skillets, it looks like the 2nd and 3rd from the bottom might be fancy handled, bottom gate marked??

Re: Lye Bath

Re: Unusual Cast Iron Frog
It's a boot jack. Anchored to the floor and you hook the heel of your boot in the antenna and pull your boot off. I've had several of these. Use one now as a door stop in my shed, lol.

Re: Some Pics from the Dinkys Auction This Weekend
That 3 lip #9 is amazing. Has to be one of the rarest pieces out there. Although I'm not a big fan of chrome or nickel plated pieces, that #2 is stunning. I see posts about this auction house all the...

Re: Bride's Choice....
I suspect that there was a bottom gatemark that has been eroded away by the sulfur pitting. I see these referred to as "initial" skillets. Unknown maker, if I'm remembering correctly. Nice, old...

Re: I'll Be Dog-Gone "Home"
Nice find. I have pretty much stopped even checking at my local Goodwill store. Never any cast iron. I think they put it all on their eBay store.

Re: Griswold #14 Cracked Wt Handle
That's the most common place to find cracks on a skillet. Cast iron is very brittle and my guess would be that these cracks are from being dropped on the handle at some point in it's life. I wouldn't...
