Apple cider vinegar, rice wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar, malt vinegar, etc. Back to rust, there are a few other types of vinegar to be aware of. Distilled, White...- Philbert

Cast iron cookware
Beyond me! They cleaned up smooth, and relatively light weight. Hunted around some Internet sights, with a little direction, to come up with the ID that I did. Had not heard of BSR before that. Philbert- Philbert

You have different manufacturers of CI. It’s interesting to see different shapes, etc., than what we are used to. In US we get some French (Le Creuset, STAUB), and a bunch of cheap Taiwan or China products. Probably none of what you consider to be ‘normal’ stuff (like our Lodge brand)...- Philbert

Height adjustable depth gauge tool
I don’t file on any of my depth gauge tools. If the tool is soft, the file could damage it. If the tool is hard, it could wear the file faster . Place. Check. File. Philbert- Philbert
