Something to ponder.
My younger sister still has a Pyrex measuring cup that our grandmother used which is virtually identical to one you can buy today I have no Idea how many years our grandmother used the cup She passed away in 1965 when I was just 11 years old but I remember her making cookies cakes pies she made the best pies I've ever tasted and the measuring cup was ever present.
So my question would be were the cups made by the same or similar machines some 50,60 or more years ago? I've often thought of the generation just prior to mine as having been the smartest generation. They came up with ways for repetitive duplication while later generations have only managed to convert to more automated higher speed machines mostly based on ideas and machines from bygone eras

Never try to tell me it can't be done
