Came across these pieces in a guy's collection, decided they needed to go right into the lye bath last night.
Luckily, I'd spent the last couple months not adding anything in to my 4 baths, and the last couple weeks emptying and refilling them with fresh lye for just this occasion. The first pictures represent 20 pieces inside the totes, 32 outside. The totes after are with 53 pieces inside. (I added 2 and subtracted 1 as I went.)
(The guy's collection in question was my own.)
WHY 53 PIECES IN THESE TOTES? So there's plenty of room for 10 or 15 more! Is why, silly. I also had a few move out to the e-tank and emptied my 3 e-tanks into the oven.
11 pieces in the oven tonight, 7 pieces in the e-tanks, just need to have the time to get it all through!
CHALLENGE: How many can you spot-ID??
(I use "pieces" to mean entries on my spreadsheet, which counts a fryer with lid as 1, but when actually e-tanking or seasoning, the pieces are actual, 1 lid, 1 fryer, etc. So there's maybe 10 more than what's listed on)
