Cast Iron Findeth Me.........
« on: February 11, 2017, 01:36:25 PM »

Shortly after noon today, a knock on the door, and a there stands a stranger holding a stack of rusty iron!   :)  (Who remembered from over two years ago that I mentioned I collect Cast Iron cookware !)

So, a couple more pieces to be cleaned up and made pretty again.

Both Wagner Stylized, 1088 Chicken Fryer and a 1053.

(Passed on a few, but did tell the stranger to bring them back in the Spring if it is decided to use them for camping, and I'd clean them up then!)

Free iron is hard to pass on!

Not exactly free, I did pay for them, but it sure beats driving around searching  8-)
