I have to give the man credit for his ingenuity. I doubt it performs as well as the original. Something about it I find rather primative and interesting. However not interesting enough to bid.

100% homemade. When it was made, I don't know but definitely homemade.

I responded to a CL add for other things in this guys stash. He is a nice guy but not a collector with much knowledge. He showed me this and said the classic "this must be worth a lot". I looked at it in disbelief. Looks worse in person.
He really bought some lemon at a flea market somewhere from someone as equally inexperienced as he is.
