Hi, I知 new.
« on: June 23, 2021, 01:25:13 AM »
Hello everyone! Newbie here. I have access to nothing...  :grin:! So I guess I知 posting here to introduce myself. What do you all want to know about me? I知 from Alaska (obviously) and I知 addicted to cast iron. Is this where the 12 step program is?

Welcome to the best place for accurate info on CI. Any special interests? Do you get much CI way up there? What does "access to nothing" mean?
Any questions, just let us know

:) I just saw all the members-only threads first thing and lamented not being able to access the good stuff. I know how to rectify that though.

We don稚 get much up here unfortunately. My particular interests are waffle irons & Iron Mountain. Trying to figure out the size range/pattern list for IM skillets & DO痴.

Sandra,
  Before you do anything crazy, like pay ebay prices :wink:, let me know what size Iron Mountain skillets you're looking for. A couple years back I shipped a very nice Griswold 10 with lid over to Australia (for a CI deprived member) for the very low price I'd paid, plus actual shipping.
  I don't buy low & sell high like most, I'd rather it go to a good home, and WAGS members get even better treatment. I just went and checked and found that I have a #7, #8, and #9 IM skillet. I picked the #9 up for $1 at an estate sale about a month ago, if you'd feel guilty only paying that, you can give me $2. On the #7 and #8 I think that I paid a bit less than $50 for the pair.
  If these would help, just message me and we can discuss details. Shipping to Alaska is likely pricey, but my low cost CI might make it worthwhile...

Stuart, you are amazing as always!  :smiley:

If Sandra doesn't take you up on your offer... well...

The two IM Skillets that I still need are the #9 and #14 (of course, the big uns are always Harder to git!)  :cool: :cool:
