    Interesting order yesterday. Ordered a 70 pint dehumidifier for our house. Humidity down here can suck, so this should help.

    its a little better than that now. I sanded and cleaned a good bit before I shipped her off. I just know my limitations are far greater than the esteemed hone meister/restoration ace from Akron.

    Depends on how much house your trying to knock it down in,, but it should do a couple rooms, the wife’s COPD and asthma we have done lots of stuff to the hvac in this house. High tech air cleaners, uv filters and humidifiers and dehumidifiers. We have to keep the atmosphere for her beyond normal good. And Memphis is delta humid. Me it doesn’t matter. Before we done the whole system we had a couple of the ones your getting and it done a great job, just have to dump them in humid times a lot. Unless it’s somewhere you can plumb it in

    It's funny, I like the really old ones like that but mainly just because they're so old. To shave with I actually like them a little newer. I have this affinity for the Wade & Butcher Specials, especially the later ones with the "Special" engraving on the blade. Not sure exactly what it is about them I like so much. For me though the sweet spot as far as production period is right around the turn of the 20th century give or take 20 years either direction. That Sheffield steel from those days was just magical.
