Is that the weird crank set that keeps the chain spinning with the back wheel. If so I have a bike like that on the back burner project list.

It does not seem like the greatest idea, but is cool. Would be great for shifting.

That is a FFS crank set if that's the question. Shimano Front freewheel system.

Busy week for me. Thanks to a fellow CABE member I finally found my oddball 1946 Dx frame! Scored a couple smalls for my Phantom project. Found a rack that may be correct for my Hawthorne twin bar project. And found a 1940 Dx with all its original parts hiding under an ugly repaint.

Honest question for people who may can. Does a device like this, provide any benefit over lets say a ninja blender that I might not be taking into consideration. Other then no need for electrical power?

I'm interested in eventually learning how to can into mason jars utilizing a pressure cooker, and wonder if this device is something I should consider keeping.

Removes the skins, seeds and pulp to capture only the juice. We canned tomato juice for use in cooking and more than a few Bloody Marys.
Canned tons of jelly (cherry, strawberry, raspberry, elderberry, pear etc...) which uses only juice as apposed to jam which has everything in it which is what a Ninja blender would do.

My prayers & condolences JD. It sounds like you have many fond memories and a lot of love in your heart so she continues on within you! Blessings to you and your family!

I gave my bank account a good old fashion Mike Tyson beating this week and ended up with a couple of pretty cool old Shelby's, some grips, pedals and triple drop center wheelset. It's been a good week and I'm a happy guy!

Oh yeah! A couple of cool banana seats as well.

I offer you my deepest condolences about the passing of your wife.

This week, I have a nice set of black barrel grips for a Raleigh three speed and a nice set of frame/cable clips for a Schwinn three speed.

Got a neat 1980's repro ( Korea) of a sign I've wanted ( original is 1950's) for quite awhile MIB/mint in box. It was an item made by Coca Cola for street safety. The back generally has a COKE logo. At approx. 5 foot policeman all metal. I don't ( it never came with one as a repop) have the cast metal stand, rare and expensive to ship if you can't find local. I used an old cast iron Xmas tree stand a buddy gave me. I dig it. Also ended up putting my Corvette spinners on the red rims, couldn't get the dog dish ones to fit well enough. Woody approves.
