Went into a William Sonoma kitchen store at an outlet mall. Found a 4ft expensive pepper grinder in clearance. Needed some TLC. But for $36. Gave it a shot.
Stripped it down. Pinned a Crack. Im Down to some Crack filler finsh sand and ready to paint. Need a color advise. Thought about an automotive paint and multi layer clear coats for wet look depth. Funny part I asked the cashier. Will you take $35. She said no. But $36 and it's a deal. Grinder portion is new.
But a fun project. I'm thinking my custom grind steak blend.

Nice buy and all, but personally, I think I would have held out for the 6’ model.

Its the Pandemic Pepper Grinder... long enough to maintain "social distancing".
Would love to see it once you've refinished it.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX. -

Should have probably walked out when they wouldn't take $35, but very cool project. Plus now you have a spare table leg or bannister should you need one.Stillwater, MN

I think it would look awesome painted like a barber pole.They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That's against their interests. - George Carlin

local Costco had a similar one on clearance for 20$CDN - SMBO gave me a bad look when we passed by them and she saw my lip moving 😂🤣____________________Entrepreneurs are simply those who understand that there is little difference between obstacle and opportunity and are able to turn both to their advantage. •Niccolo Machiavelli

I've seen all the different heights for pepper grinders. Is there a practical reason? I assume one just holds more pepper and looks cooler?

the only practical place for such a grinder is in the hands of a highly trained professional pepper grinder waiter in an italian restaurant.

you can break that old adage “the food quality is inversely proportional to the size of the pepper grinder”.______________________________________________I love lamp..
