Finally got to go "shopping"
« on: January 29, 2015, 06:31:55 AM »
Whelp, haven't been on here in quite awhile. Knee replacement surgery went really well and I've recovered to the point where I took my grand daughter shopping (garage sales) with me last Saturday. No cane, no pain killers, good shape. Picked up two worthy pieces for very cheap. Seeing as how I sold most of my best pieces to pay bills, I've decided I'm probably not a collector, but I still like to buy and restore, using what I've learned here, so thanks guys.

The first is slant griswold 5, inset heat ring. The 2nd is a nickel plated wagner 8 and the nickel plating looks very good on the sides-we'll see. No cleaning til spring for me!
