Dean,

Only one word. SWEET!!!

As a cast iron lover I can completely understand why you would want that! It's just wayy to cool. The unaddicted will never understand.....

Kelly just bought 4 more of the little Lodge Country Kettles.ImageThey are great for individual corn breads and such. We just fill them up with batter or dough, then put them in a 14" for cooking. Out comes a loaf that is just perfect for one person. (it's a fun presentation too)

Congrats again on your newest addition!

Joanne

Now, you know who to call if you stumble across any more of those little babies don't ya?

Guy,
I don't lie... Now YOU tell the truth and tell everyone how many ovens I took to Swimmers Delight... (The answer is one 14", an extra lid and one pizza ring... Right???)

Steve,
Already got a Norwegian version of that, which could be used for cones...

Joanne,
Are you talking about another little waffle iron or those country kettles?... of which six of them are setting on the back of my stove. :lol:

If its the waffle iron, act quickly...
(Current high bidder fredfred56 is one tough sumgun to beat and he is a waffle iron freak)
This one is real, like mine... Not a fake
Only 17 hrs. - 50 minutes left!!! :o
My guess is it will go over for over $110.00. :thinking:

Dean,

I'm talking about that little waffle iron! I'm going to check my bank balance. I might just throw a few bucks at that little baby and see what happens.

I have a hard time cutting down on the amount of iron I drag around. My favorite is still my original Lodge 10. I picked up a 10" deep from Sportsman's Warehouse that I really like too. It's just perfect for 2 or 3 people.

I think I have a 14 still rattling around in the back of my SUV. :lol:

Anyway, I'm off to e-bay....

Had to make a template and true up both sides with a router.
The kid had some pretty bad whoopty-doos, his curves weren't faired.
His edges weren't sanded at 90 degrees either.
I got 'em nice now with the faired template.
I also took off a quarter of an inch for weatherstripping at the hatch location.

Hey... How about that???
I got some tear talk in while talkin' iron. :lol:

I'm more impressed that you're working on your tear than anything. :thumbsup:

Jim,
I've been going over the calendar with TDN...
There's lots of demands on our time between now and Mendo and I'm...


In fact, I said it to her yesterday... "Might have to call Jerome" :whistle:


WB!!! :R

I'm even considering forgoing the FDOS deal out at A.W. Way to free up a weekend for working on the tear. :o

Wow, you're serious about finishing if you're thinking about missing a DOG.

The Deep 10" is my favorite too. Told Mel to grab it and a 12" for Hanksville but she grabbed a 12" and a 14". Oh well, I ended only needing the lid to warm the tortillas.

Interesting...
The 14" is what I seem to be using the most.
It's just right for the kid's pizzas and makes some nice big cobblers...
I like 'em all, big and small. :R

Dino's right

Postby Guy » Tue Jun 12, 2007 7:35 pm

Dino did not take all his iron to Swimmers Delight, I lied.

Jim,

He was really serious about finishing his tear. I will vouch for that. (See Second Sentence Above!!) :D

No, he really did work on it a ot with a tremendous amount of thought going into the process, especially on how to fix every problem from the previous owner/builder. (Geez, I would hate to hear the comments of the person who tried to fix my mistakes.)

His will be a really nice comfortable tear when it is campable. (See Teardrop Dictionary for definition.
Regards,

Guy
