Screw Pan????

[baggerman]

I came across a hand held rotary pan that is marked "screw pan" on the back but can't find any info on it. I am thinking about building an aluminum frame for it instead of holding it in my hand as it is intended. Do these things really work? What angle should it be held at? Best used wet or dry?

Thanks

YES! That is exactly what i have except mine is blue and doesn't have the little bumps in between the screw parts, the center is non removable. I paid $10 for mine at a garage sale. Do you know if they work or are they more trouble than they are worth?

I have the motorized version of it. A damn Cow stepped on the bowl and broke it.

Yes they work.

Angle should be around 45%.

Depends on materials your running.

Damn, $10.00? They want $50.00 for a new bowl


Yours is the first ones that came out.

They started putting the dimples in later.

Motorize that puppy and your in.

You can see the gold as it walks up the spiral to the cup.

They also work dry though not quit as efficient.

You Don Did Good for $10.00!!!!

Cool! Looks like it's time to start scrounging parts for my next project.
