<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MacMorrighan, post: 260414, member: 5119&quot;]Holy cranberries, Bat Man!&nbsp; I was just checking out the prices for antique butter molds on eBay, and while I adored the pricing for the most part; I was shocked that some of the more expensive molds (around $75.00) was the wheat sheaf patters, which happens to be THE most common and widely executed butter mold pattern win creation!&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/tongue.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":p" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; It&#039;s hardly rare, so I wonder why they are commending so much?</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, I have just been told, by a specialist of antique butter molds to use a food grade mineral oil--the sort that one uses on their wooden bowls and butcher blocks, etc.&nbsp; So, I may be trying that.&nbsp; Dunno&#039; why I couldn&#039;t find any in des Moines at Wal-Mart.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/tongue.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":p" unselectable="on" /> (I just happened to be running errands today, in the heat.)&nbsp; Though I did pick up some Brasso for use on a beautiful brass table lamp that I plan to re-wire and clean up to look like knew!&nbsp; I just wish that I could find a beautiful lamp shade that I like since every one I see for sale is quite ugly and isn&#039;t pretty enough!&nbsp; I&#039;ll try to upload a before-and-after photo of the lamp.&nbsp; Looking back, I really should have bought both for a matching set![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
