Hello Keith. It looks like you got a lot going on for sure. Congratulations on the new pieces. Not to be a stickler, but my good friend Steve Stephens is not here, so someboby has got to take his place, and from time to time, I do that.  ;D

But to be sure the pieces I see there are Magnalite and not Aluminum. They are different from each other.  :)

Hello Keith.  This is perhaps a dumb question.  But do you collect jars? The reason I am asking is because I wondered if there ever was a one gallon size canning jar made? And if so how hard are they to find and how much they are worth.  If anybody else knows please jump right in.

Just a heads up on your shelving. Too much CI on one shelf, and the partical board will break. It will fall to the next shelf below, causing that one to break. Ask me how I know.

I have the same setup and that's why I replaced the shelves with plywood.
