    Nice boot scraper. But sure get dirty looking quick when used. I built one that uses two horseshoes on each side of the flat scraper blade and screwed brushes on each side to get the manure off of the threads of the soles on the sides also. It is on a spike so I can pull it up when mowing (don't need to weedeat around it).

    Mimeograph machine. Could always tell if the teacher was giving tests that day cause their fingertips were always purple! (I wore rubber gloves when I started teaching!). Now I can email my test to the copier, it can copy on one side or both sides, put each test paper in order and staple it and stack the tests!

    I'm sorry I don't know, kiddo got home from a slumber party and other projects going on here so I did not see after the first rain delay. I just googled and looks like it's been postponed.

    I'm old and did not know what this was and I do some of my own canning.
    Sure that grandma had a couple of these hanging around her pantry.
