The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread Part III (Sept 2018-)

[ORLThrifter]

Mostly picking up scraps lately, but these ties seemed to cool to pass. I forgot Mordechai did the tie thing briefly and I’m always surprised by things like this Geoffrey Beene knit that is more impressive (personally) than any Kiton/Brioni/Zegna, etc I’ve ever handled.

And of course some good Vietnam era OG Seabees shirt action. What was once so abundant, now rare to find these days.

I had to look it up to determine what it was and it's such a neat tool. Going to learn how fully utilize it.

sorry to derail the thread

@txwoodworker You would use a potato ricer for canning / preserves? interesting
@flipstah the ricer is necessary if you ever make gnocchi at home. so much easier than a masher because you get consistency

 

[txwoodworker]

This could be used to mash fruit after you boil it. Just to make sure I wasn't crazy, this is the first thing that came up:

Mashers: it's not just for gnocchi anymore.
