Greetings from Wisconsin

Hello all -

I've only been collecting/interested in cast iron for a few weeks. I've made a few buys, but nothing particularly special.

Here's a few of my finds.

There doesn't seem to be a good way to embed Imgur albums, if anybody has any advice on that please let me know.

Anyway, I have my first pan in a lye bath and plan on building an e-tank. It's a 60s Wagner grill pan, not valuable, but a good start!

Glad to meet you all, this site and forum has been an excellent resource.

Nope.... But links are fine. I've noticed a few redditors here, so we're used to Imgur. You can also embed images in posts'.

I've got quite a bit of cast iron, but the one thing I never see while I'm out hunting is grill pans. There's one floating around in my family, but nobody will admit that they're the one who has it.

Have you had your tetanus shot?

Lol, yes up to date on all my shots.

I've got a modern Lodge one too that I've had for a few years. To be completely honest, we don't use it. It makes nice grill marks....but it's useless for anything but primary protein cooking. I just use the Weber when I want grill marks. Much less mess on the stove too.

I don't know what I am going to do with the Wagner one. It's not particularly valuable and the Lodge pretty much proves I won't use it. I'm gonna fish it out of the lye tank today and put it in the vinegar tank. I think it's more rusty than gunky. We'll see how it turns out.
