Feb 3-25 Auction

[RJ Ruchti]

Couple photos of the items I won at the on line auction last weekend. One more chef skillet in the oven getting seasoned and the base for the Wagner #8 waffle iron is in the lye tank working on the crud around the bottom of the base. It may be all carbonized and have to use a different method to clean it up. Most are Wagner with one Lodge 3 notch and couple Griswold items. Got 3 sets of Griswold Patty mounds, 2 were in the box, one with instructions. Boxes were in rough shape though.

Nice haul I think.

What's your method for removing stubborn carbon stains?

Been using Carbon Off, thick liquid. Brush on and leave for up to 15 hours. Softens it up enough a dull narrow chisel will take a lot off. If it is real thick stuff like I am running into on a waffle iron base it will take a lot of time and work. I found a couple holes rusted through. Off brand iron so not going to mess with it anymore. Might use the paddles on another base some time.
