Larger than a Pressure Cooker

Well I sure was in luck at today's sales...a neat '66 Percolator, some Melmac ware, some cool light fixtures in their boxes, an early 60's RCA color set, and this strange machine.....the HandyHot!

The motor in the lid actually runs the three vane agitator back and forth instead of just spinning it. And it has a clamp on mini-wringer. Anyone ever see anything like this?

I see these on eBay all the time...although I don't bid because you really can't watch the action

I did bid on an "inverted" version of this; a motor on the bottom oscillated a mini 2-vane agi-tub back and forth, but it was basically the same design. Didn't win it though...would have probably been interesting to watch.

Cory, Where in the world are you putting all these things? You keep going and your gonna have to get a warehouse! I thought I was bad!

Yow! Please post a pic of the perc (a percpic?) and that TV set!
When someone else finds cool stuff, it's almost as much fun as when I find it myself.

Almost!

I saw this type of machine at an antique shop a few years ago. Basically a big pot with an agitator and motor in the lid. These portables were still being made in the '70s with plastic tubs.

Interesting..Not sure what I'll do with it, but it might be fun to fire it up.

Veg, here are some pics of the other finds- I'll have to give the RCA cataract surgery but that's not so bad. The kitschy tray is 20" across! Would be right at home on my future patio. And dig that percolator : )

Ooooh! Daddy like!

Is that perc a Kenmore? Never seen a lid like that. It's sort of similar to an Oster I'm trying to get my hands on.

Love the set. Don't think I'd risk doing cataract surgery myself--too likely to blow something up!

And I know I've seen that tray before, probably in one of my retro-type books.

All fabboo finds! You need to post pictures of your house!

Oster

Veg,

Are you looking for that Jeston's looking Oster? Plastic body? Very futuristic?
