I like it all Bill.  Wonder how many bullets were made over a camp fire with those little pots?  Thanks for showing me the goodies.

Have you bought any Old Woodworking tools ?

A few days ago, I cut some call wood with a ~100 year old saw. hehe

Barry I kinda wondered about that also

Toes I have a lot of old hand tools and wood working tools scattered between basement and shed I prefer looking at them instead of using them.
Cause I would probably break them  :laf:

They don't make like this anymore
I remember Dad bringing this home when I was a kid about 10 years old
This was a big upgrade for us this ment no more hand cranking the meat grinder
It was well used when we got it and has been used alot more since
I had to put a new belt on it and got it oiled up and was getting ready to clean it up and put it to good use on some deer meat when the pulley broke.  :madd:

I borrowed a meat grinder for the deer meat and that is in the freezer now

Cool stuff. It's kinda neat to look at it and imagine the history with it.
I think we still got a meat grinder like that somewhere around here.
