You've really raised the bar on that ash pan. I'm gonna have to break out the clay bars & the Milwaukee w/9" polishing wheel. Sh!t just got real!!!

Don't forget the bacon!  This time not for rest prevention or polishing....this times it for you to eat.  You are going to need some protein for the number of hours you will be working to get this kind of shine!

Plan sounds good in theory. Unfortunately, the reality is that my daughters would eat the bacon as fast as I made it. So, I'd be lucky to get two slices & I'd lose 45 mins. of polishing time. I would have a fresh batch of gelatinous gold for rust prevention & homemade lube though.

Obviously looking for a Glen Blue (who isn’t?😂).

Looking for anything Happy Cooker, including any re-branded as Montgomery Ward.  I’ve amassed a nice collection, but I’m missing a few still.  Let me know if you can help a fella out🤞
