I started a mild restoration of this beautiful thumbscrew red.  I think I see spin lines.

Huge thanks to Bear and Jocool for making a dream come true.  Literally.  No shit, I’ve dreamt of scoring one of these vintage woks, but never imagined I’d find one NIB.  It’s huge!

Sorry I had to break up the post, the WKC app is only allowing 10 pics per post.  Let me make it up to y’all with this bonus red.
