Brake rotors are no longer manufactured in the United States or Canada for aftermarket consumption. The “domestic” brands you may be familiar with (Raybestos,Wagner, Bendix, Centric, Motorcraft, Delco) are all manufactured in China/Taiwan
So you are buying Chinese iron not American!!!!!
I worked in the steel industry you can indeed measure the temperature it is a critical part in the manufacturing process…..
damn this is boring
300 dollars for a ten inch pan? LOL f that!
Wow 😲
would be awesome if you could make a waffle iron 10in plz
You should of done at least 6 coatings of seasoning
You guys want way too much money for your products.
Выглядит очень красиво и технологично. Насколько удобны чугунные ручки у сковороды? Не нагревается ли она в процессе приготовления еды?
Impressive? Yes, but one of these skillets is $300. It defeats the purpose of cast iron. cheap cookware that will last forever. when there's so many great cast iron skillets out there at a way better price, buying one of these skillets cant be justified
Isn't brake dust toxic? And those prices are insane!
can't call it hand made!! a lot of Machines involved !!!
Yikes checkout their Google reviews. Not exactly glowing in regards to customer service and actually delivering the finished product.
That looks very light for cast iron.
Thick wall is not good. Takes forever to heat. I bought a large cast iron skillet with thick wall and I only used it a couple of times because it takes forever to heat up.
This is really nice but is it 10 times as nice as my lodge cast iron skillet that cost $30?
Had a lovely email correspondence with Liz.
Highly recommend.
I don't get why the side dips down where the handle is on the pan, you can only hold as much liquid as the lowest part of the side so everywhere else where its higher is redundant.
Whewwww $300 for one 😳 Crazy lol
Really cool process though.
Hai bro… I need a work, please give me a job on your workshop
Those handles need some wood on em or soemthing. That doesnt look easy to grab.
Every man wishes they had a garage that big.
That you. Saw the Lodge process. What complete opposite ends of the spectrum. This is neat. I will look them up.
they look great.. i just wished to also have and used your cast iron..
i can tell they really love what they do. good job
Buyer beware… they are back ordered over a year. Have not responded to emails in months.
So beautiful cast iron products
I love cast iron but all there products are over 200. I guess I will start with Lodge until my tax bracket increases. But honestly that is not a bad price for something that will last a few lifetimes.
DONT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY – @eater, I was inspired by this video to get a Dutch oven from Borough Furnace. My best friend purchased one for me for my wedding gift. A year later, it has not arrived and the company has stopped responding. Dozens of other customers are in the same boat, scammed hundreds of dollars. @Eater, do you have any info on if this company went under?
If Quentin Tarantino needed a plot for a divorcee who went on a mad rampage, this is it 100%
Very interesting, but I can't get over how much the guy sounds like John Malkovich.
They are not the only maker of enameled cast iron utensils. Lodge makes them.
These people are crooks. They take your money but don’t deliver merchandise. Stay away
As scrap raw material is used, do you measure lead/impurities content in final product ?
These people are scam artists. Please don’t buy anything from them. Check some customer reviews.
The process is the same as the mass produced ones – just less efficient.
I love cast iron that is silky smooth! The rough peppled finish is awful!
It's a shame this company has an incredibly bad reputation now. A ton of negative feedback in regards to delays in shipping, some over a year and even up to 2 years without people getting their products. Little to no communication with people and not refunding after all that time. Really wanted to order something but not chancing it. Very disappointing.
Wow! I'm so impressed with the process and the care given to each piece! Amazing quality!
I like the way how you process.
Very safe. Complete protective safety googles…
I'm sure your business is safe and quality.
Why is that called a "Dutch oven"? I'm Dutch, so I'd really like to know why it's Dutch, because I've never seen it called just an "oven" here 😀
I'm trying to understand the forming process. At 0.40 they show a mold. Then something gets filled with sand. I'm not understanding where the cavity is between the sand and the mold.
8:35 Pretty sure the second law of thermodynamics would disagree 😂
Where do I look to get a job like this in the eastern us? I’m in SC for instance
I needed a better bread knife and chose this one based on a recommendation from America's Test Kitchen
