Universal #4 Bread Maker
« on: July 30, 2019, 03:58:51 PM »
Well, I stopped at one of my favorite stops, looking for a tin/enameled pot lid I could use to make a bird feeder. (I’m going to glue it to the bottom of a quarter Mason jar and use the handle to hang it from a tree). Didn’t find one, but I couldn’t resist this bread maker. Oops. I’ve seen these before, but never for $19. (It appears to have all of the parts, including the table clamp.)

Had to have it.

I’m hoping it is waterproof.

And I’m hoping evaporust and some gentle washing is all it needs.

Most of the ones I've seen are twice that price, they don't have the table clamp, and they are not as clean as that one. Post a pic once you clean it up, and it's ready to go.

Will do! Thanks.

Do you reckon it would be a good idea to wipe it down with a thin layer of oil, maybe mineral oil, when I get the rust off?

Mineral oil would be a good idea. If you plan to use it at some time, the oil on the inside would need to be removed first.
