CAST IRON ICE SHAVER
$200
If the advertisement is visible then the item is still available.Phone call is the most effective form of contact this end and seems to get the best results.
This little 'POLAR' ice shaver is a recent import from Philippines.
History prior to that is unknown.I am presuming the way it was fitted to a portable stand when found that it had been making a living providing shaved ice for a street vendor.In that locality a street confectionary called Halo-Halo using shaved ice,local fruits and coconut milk is quite popular.
There are a a number of cast iron antique style machines in continued production there locally,and i am unsure if this one is a copy of an American shaver or perhaps Japanese,or the product of another long time local Asian maker.
It's condition is good with no cracking and i would think with a little bit of attention it could be cutting ice again as intended.
I am guessing it might be as late as 1980's manufacture,having a plastic gear guard and a nylon disc underneath the main drive plate that is attached to the vertical screw.
The whole assembly will pack fairly small if dismantled,and weight packed would be less than 20 kg.
This advert is the items first exposure before being put out to a wider audiece so my asking price is for now a firm price.
Buyer would look after postage cost or arrange pick up.

- Windmill wheel Windmill fan 6 foot Southern CrossThis 6 foot windmill wheel was part of the latest recovery project. I was able to purchase a complete wrecked windmill for parts and the wheel we see here was mostly buried and overgrown with pasture. I love these little six foot versions with their smart slender appearance and plenty of sails. This model is known out on the job as being quite lively with very little wind about. As i say,quite a personal favourite that i have watched turning many times while wondering how,while there seems to b$650Allansford, VIC•1w
