Found this pot today

[rustyh]

Found this pot today at a local antique store. Looked like it had been used as a flower pot it is fairly pitted inside, I spent a couple of hours scrubbing and brushing the inside. Filled it with water and boiled it twice then washed again, baked it, oiled and baked again.

That's a fine piece of kit. I think it calls for a pot of chili, don't you?

I think it will hold about 2 gallons. I used it this weekend at our spring rondy boiled some potatoes and sausage used a gallon of water and still had room to spare.

The "8" cast onto the bottom is almost certainly the capacity in quarts.
