Name that Thing~

[Pearl]

I was one number off, it's a slicer!!

 

[LadyLocust]

You are awesome @Pearl !!! Great, now I have a "new" kitchen gadget Not sure I will keep it, but I might at least try it out first & let ya know.

 

[Morgan101]

Great find, Pearl. Were you a detective in a prior life?

 

[Pearl]

This was also mentioned on Etsy and Pinterest. I don't have accounts on either one so that's all the info I can share!! Great find!!

You two are fancy ladies! And I have no idea what that thing is.

You bet we are fancy!!

 

[Amish Heart]

Ha Ha.
My favorite cousin calls anyone with makeup or nail polish on, fancy ladies.
I think it's funny.

See LadyLocust, and you thought you were just hiding dirt under your nails! Now you are fancy!!

 

[Amish Heart]

Well, you are too, Pearl. Ha
You have fancy nails.
There's a story behind this. I missed a family Sunday dinner because of Mother's Day and we had mom over. My favorite cousin calls me the next morning. Her sis in law (who is formally amish, but now fancy) stopped in. She had a new purse that had black and white cow hide on it, had tons of jewelry, makeup on, and had her nails done and painted. My favorite cousin said she missed me so much, and was so tired of looking at fancy. I guess it was a compliment? Ha Ha for me.
Back to the subject. I have no clue what that thing is Lady L.

I posted what it is, look back a few posts!! 1940's veggie slicer!

 

[Amish Heart]

Whoops! OK!
Lady L, you need to slice some veggies and show us how they turn out

I'm thinking pictures!! And keep those dirty nails covered in them!!

Indian cookware?



Looks like tabs would work for the inserts

It looks like a bottle warmer. For baby bottles.

 

[LadyLocust]

I will figure out something to slice and use it and try to remember to take pictures

Another one: I found this copper pot this weekend for a price I couldn't pass up, but it appears to be missing a piece inside. Anyone know just what the part missing is? I am guessing it's for steaming etc. unless you tell me otherwise.

I haven't washed it yet, but I will

The lid is interesting. This could have been for distilling water. The pointed lid would allow water to fall back down.

 

[Weedygarden]

That jigger looks like a egg yoke/white separator to me

That is what I thought.

We'll remind you if it doesn't happen soon!

Thank you - you know how I am

The slicer isn't staying. I will attach the photo. It essentially works like a cheese grater but slower and less efficiently. It would either break the carrot or pull off a chunk of it. Carrot tasted the same but guess I found it pointless. It will go in the donation box but was worth 25c. to figure it out. Thank you Pearl.
I don't like having multiple tools to do the same job and have actually worked pretty hard at decluttering the kitchen then keeping it from reentering

Think again, might could sell it for a couple of gallons of gas!!

 

[Amish Heart]

That sounds a little steep in price.
I'm actually looking for an antique soap wire basket with a handle that is used in the kitchen for putting in a bar soap for washing dishes. You run the water over it instead of using liquid dish soap. We go through alot of liquid dish soap. The grandkids over use it.

That is kind of the nature of children, to use too much soap.

I see obo which tells me it isn't selling for that. That's just what they are asking. It's all washed and in the box. I thought about putting the first clip you posted with it so folks would know what it was, but thought "why ruin the fun."

I have 2 of those. Handy! Both were estate sale finds. They have them on amazon but a quick search & it's cheaper on etsy.

I saw the peeler on Etsy for 4.99!

 

[Amish Heart]

And just like that Lady L! You found it! Yep, that's what I want.

 

[Pearl]

Hubby picked it up at a garage sale today! Something to do with cheese????

 

[Pearl]

It's about 9" by 5 1/2"!

 

[elkhound]

dont believe anything i say..i am a dumb redneck and get bashed for grammar and more...but...that word is cheese pot or cheese pan in german i think.

i believe since it has slats on bottom its for fresh cheese where you want to pour of any water that leaks from it like a fresh farmers cheese you would make.

sonya might be along..i think she speaks german

cheese is kase and toph is pot or pan

 

[backlash]

It's a German cheese pot.
