[net.cooks] Pressure Regulator Needed

inc@fluke.UUCP (Gary Benson) (07/28/84)

I am just popping into this newsgroup for a while to see if any of you can
help with a little something I need.

I recently became the proud owner of a "Victory" canner, manufactured in Eau
Claire, Wisconsin, circa 1945. This little baby is a gem -- still has the
original wooden handles, the rack, and the enamel has NO CHIPS in it.

It will be great for making jam once all the wild blackberries around here
start to ripen, but as a real pressure-canner, it's no good, because the one
thing it's missing is the pressure regulator. (At least that's what I think
you call that little metal thing that goes on top and lets the steam out
little by little.) Does anyone know if the company still exists, and if so,
if they still make the right-size thingey? Or where I can get a suitable
replacement?

Thanx in advance --
