Appreciation post: that weird old cork press I grabbed at an estate sale in Dayton
I used to just use my hands to press corks into bottles for homemade hot sauce, and it always came out crooked or crumbled. This 1950s cork press I found for $5 has a lever and a metal guide that makes it perfect every time. Has anyone else stumbled onto one of these old laboratory-style tools that just works way better than modern stuff?

That lever sounds way better than fighting with cork crumbs on my counter. Might need to start haunting estate sales myself.
