Look what I got! Cost me Five Buckarooskis at the thrift store! An old Sears Coldspot! It's a little rusty in spots on the outside of the cylinder, but should easily be cleaned up...(any suggestions?) The inside of the cylinder is spotless and appears to be patent, I have it filled with water right now and no leaks are seen!

The whole thing is dusty and needs a good scrubbin'...but it's really in good shape, otherwise.

Use a wire brush on the rust spots to clean them up, then spray a little Rust-o-leum on it, maybe?

Man o man that is so cool. I have recently wished I had one of those too. Just not the same with the modern ones. You know? Electric.

The kids will be so excited to crank that thing...for about 5 minutes and the charm will wear off. You or Steve will have to do it the rest of the time. But you'll sure enjoy that ice cream!! Mama used to make an orange-pineapple sherbet using a 1/2 gallon of ice milk mix (yes you could buy it in the store, just like milk), a 2 liter bottle of orange soda and a #2 can of crushed pineapple. It was SOME good!!
