no dimples for wire rest



dimples for wire rest. no stop for bail

no dimples for wire rest

 

[Doug D.]

Is that 2 or 3 different DOs?

 

[Bonnie Scott]

I have the DO in the last picture. I think we determined it was a Lodge.

Is that 2 or 3 different DOs?

its 3

 

[Doug D.]

The first and last are unmarked Wagner. If the photos are in order.

 

[DSBradley]

I thought Wagner didn't abbreviate their markings. I would have said that the first and last was Lodge, like Bonnie said. The center DO I would have guessed a BSR.

 

[Bonnie Scott]

My bad...I just went back and looked at the post. We determined mine was a Wagner.

yes there in order. photos are of the bottom then side thethe next one bottom then side. I haveas 2 Wagner's that are similar to the middle one they don't have the structure the runs down towards the bottom of the pot for the bail thier just flat across. so I assumed is was wagner.

I also think the 8 with a dot under it is BSR. I have one with that same marking, and I *think* that's how it was ID'd when I asked. Though I don't remember 100%. I need to start writing this stuff down

I ment the side then bottom, side then bottom.
so the conclusion is the middle on is bsr and the first and third are unmarked Wagner?

 

[Doug D.]

I do not think the middle is BSR.

 

[KevM]

ok these are ones that I know what they are and why I think the middle may be wagner.
the griswolds are flat tab and the middle part where the bail wraps around is pointed

 

[KevM]

The wagners have a more rounded center piece and straight across, the tab is split for 2 fingers, and has no extended structure piece



trying to shorten my learning curve of the unmarked so if im barking up the wrong tree please let me know.
