A Lard Press!!

So what do you do with a lard press?  Our local on line auction company had one up for sale.  It sounded like something I really needed.  :)
I looked it up and found that it does some really cool things.

Yes, it presses lard.  It also has a sausage stuffer that you can use to make sausage.  It can be used as a fruit press for pressing apples for apple cider!! And....someone suggested trying to use it for a cheese press.  I've wanted an apple press and a cheese press for a long time.  I paid too much for this contraption, but I'm going to get my money out of it.

How cool? (Who but a homesteading/farming wife would get excited about a lard press?) Just the fact that you can stuff sausage with it makes it all the more valuable.

We've been talking more and more about raising a couple of pigs again next summer season. To have our own good lard again . . . heaven! If we do so I may put the lard in my little wagon and truck it over to you to try out your lard press. ;o]
