BilletHead Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Happiness is completing a set, A while back I reached out to the online community here to watch for a couple pieces of Wagner Arc cast iron. I thank you all that did look around. I finally found what I needed, and the last piece made it to the house this afternoon. When you open the box and see pool noodles it's a good thing because it was packed with care, This set goes from 5 through 12 and the 11 seems to be the hardest to find. Circa 1915 to 1920s These are my everyday users.

They are made really well and will be here for many generations to come. "The hunt" is fun also.

I don't have specific pans that I am looking for at least not yet. However, I enjoy digging through piles of old rusted pans looking for something special. To me the most visceral aspect of this hobby is that first glimpse beneath the rust and crud at the treasure within 😁. Followed by the feeling of accomplishment in bringing back new life to a forgotten pan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
