Ebay : Thermowell cover

[chipperhiker]

Ouch! I'd wait for ebay. They show up pretty often.

OK guys. I found someone with a Thermowell lid for sale at a very reasonable price.

She's cleaned and polished it already, but she says it has a few dings, "nothing serious, but not perfect." I suspect that it probably has the small dents that show up inevitably on the aluminum top - like BOTH of mine have. If you want it, she'll sell it for $25 plus $8.00 shipping. I've dealt with this person before, and she's a good source.

This is meant especially for Phoebe or fschimmel, but if neither of you want it, then I'll happily connect the next person to this very nice Chambers salvager!

Ditto on not bidding on this T-well cover!!
It is not a "restorable" part, for the reasons stated and pretty much abused looking!!

Something Sam taught me; If A T-well lid is submerged in water it ruins the rock wool. (says that is service manual)
To be able to see if this has happen, shake it, if it sounds like sand or gravel in it, it is pretty much ruined!!

Just my 2 cents worth,
Berlyn

Dear Chipperhiker,
I would love to get the thermowell cover (would it be rude to ask your friend to shake it???)

How very sweet to offer - I was still feeling foolish for walking away from my other bid (although philosophical about it too).

Hi Phoebe! I'll send her info to your email address, and you can ask her anything you like!! She's done this for a while, so I'd be very surprised if there was a problem, but you should definitely ask any specific questions you have. She did clarify that the dings are indeed the tiny aluminum dents the lids seem to get so readily! Check your email.

Phoebe,

Way to go, yeah UI know you walked away from your previous bid, but you beat me to this one. I see your also looking at some tripple pots. I am watching. So don't walk away from that one. I will bid if you are outbid. I know lowracer will tell me that is not the fair thing to do. But life goes on. Good luck

I think we will all sleep better when Frank is fully accessorized.

Phoebe,

Rest easy tonight, but stay awake tomorrow. I will only bid on those tripples if someone els joins the bidding, outbids you and you don't try to bid. So relax,

Frank

Thanks Frank, Maybe you could stay up and just buy them for me.

I see you are in for the long wait on those pretty ones - good luck.

I bought myself a thermobaker from Hugh today. At first they couldn't find a rack 'till they realized they had been using it in the rice cooker to steam tamales. They will wash it and send it along! I then had to go get a tamale for lunch!

Gosh, you'd think they'd be cookin' gumbo os something!
