Show Off Your Cast Iron Collection Here - ADD IMAGES!

[Alan]

Welcome to the Cast Iron Forum! This is the perfect place to show off your prized skillets, griddles, and unique cast iron pieces. Whether you're a seasoned collector, a daily user, or someone just starting your collection, we want to see what you've got!

To help others appreciate the history, quality, and condition of your cast iron and share in the learning, you can use the following format for your registry post:

• Photos: Clear, well-lit shots of the cooking surface, the bottom (showing any markings), the handle, and any close-ups of specific features or defects (like pitting or hairline cracks).
• Make / Model / Era: The manufacturer (e.g., Griswold, Wagner Ware, Lodge), the specific pattern or model name/number, and an estimate of the production era (e.g., pre-1900, 1920s-1940s "Erie," modern post-2000).
• Specifications: Such as size, weight, and condition.
• Modifications: If applicable. (e.g., custom wooden handle grips, any restoration work you performed, like electrolysis or heavy sanding, or a custom-built stand.)
• History: How you acquired the piece (flea market find, family heirloom, online purchase), why it's special to you, and any stories about its previous use or restoration journey.

Let's keep the discussion respectful, the posts informative, and the passion for iron burning hot. Happy seasoning!
