Having done elementary school cafeterias through half of the 1960s I am pretty confident that you will like these. You can roll them thinner and let them rise stacked. That way you dont have to slice them, it saves a step. I like mine sliced so I don't stack them to rise.

Do you let them rise in stacks of two? I ask because I am trying to re-create the cafeteria-made buns I enjoyed in mid-sixties elementary school, and I think that is what those ladies did. Your bun recipe (on another link) looks like it yields a tastier & softer bread than what I remember from long ago. Do you think an LBJ-era grade school cafeteria would have used eggs in their hamburger & hotdog buns? Thanks, Tom Thanks for posting the hamburger bun pictures.

Nothing like hand cranked to make you forget about a blackout or even a shoddy plug. I forgot to say I routinely scour the thrift shops for old fashioned kitchen gadgets.

I have certainly used cans in the pasr for cutting dough. Sometimes drinking glasses. You are so right about the perfect uses for small tomato paste can, the regular can, and the large tomatoes can. I have an old-fashioned apple peeler/corer. My kids loved it and now younger kids who come into my home love it too. That hand cranked machine makes Slinky apples, don't you know!! I love it!
