Title: Antique Honey Extractor
Post by: PovertyCreekFarm on January 13, 2014, 10:23:57 PM
I have a Crown Extractor Honey Extractor in MINT condition. It has the patent #, year, city and state still readable in original paint on the outside. It even has it's original shipping box. The extractor spins freely and has no binding issues. I have not slung any honey through it, but it looks to have NEVER been used. Anybody know anything?

Thanks

Apparently no one does.

Is the tank galvanized?

If so it will need to be Camcoted before use.

What capacity, size?

Are you wanting to sell?

I've got nothing on "Crown".  It's a stretch, but could it possibly "Cowen?"  Those are serious and worth a pretty penny.  If not post some of the specifics of patent date, city, state and any pictures so we can understand what you're talking about.

brand new in the original box!!!  Dont paint or use it.  Put it on ebay or craigs list and use the money to buy a stainless model
