My son spotted these rolling pins while on vacation and touring George Washington's distillery.
An avid cook, he wants one.
I have no idea what specific purpose the pins were designed for. They differ in several ways from the French pins I have made .
Tis a puzzlement, indeed.
I'll have to guesstimate the dimensions. Believe they will be about 16 to 18" long and 1 1/2" diameter. I plan to use mahogany.
The turning should not be difficult but discovering the history and purpose will be the challenge. I'll start by asking George's servants.
