That knife sharpener was cool.
Wonder what a working unit would cost.

I have a vintage Rival Grind-O-Mat from the 60s that grinds meat and slices veggies, as well as a lot of my mom and grandmom's rolling pin and cookie cutters--some of them from the late 40s.

I love her homemade dress with the rickrack on the collar. God bless those pioneer women.

“I love her homemade dress with the rickrack on the collar.”
The first thing I noticed too.
Don’t miss rickrack. Do miss morality.

I have a few furniture items I’ve picked up from a couple of good nearby antique shops. You’re right. They have character and are built to last. My father had a Sears Coldspot chest freezer that ran continuously for 50 years without problems. I finally got him to unplug it when he really wasn’t using it anymore. When he passed and I had an auction, I was surprised to find that someone enthusiastically bought it.
With the way most things are made today, pretty to be used short-term and then thrown away, I wonder how many of our contemporary things will still be around years from now.

Wow you have an inductive timing light! Mine is the type you pull the plug wire off and hook it inline.

Don’t forget the time that the more extension cords one had in the house meant they were poor.
Recently, the more extension cords mean the more ‘gadgets’ you own so that - in a sense - makes you more affluent....

It will be all the older stuff that survives. The modern stuff is complete junk.

The head had to be replaced and the handle has been replaced 2 or 3 times, but it still works great! The "Axe of Theseus?"

Drooling over the range. We just closed up my parents’ house. My dad has his great grandfather’s scales from the hardware store he owned. They work great. My dad uses them when he makes bread.
