Food /Tomato Strainer Stand 

We love our tomato strainer but after our first big batch of tomatoes, we got really tired of shuffling the pots around every few minutes.  The problem is the strainer just does not sit up high enough to slide a tall pot under the discard end or the juice tray.  Solution a custom designed stand made of sturdy oak that extends the strainer up enough to slide a large pan on the discard end and then has a lower shelf for a large stock pot to go under the juice tray.  Now you can process a large batch of juice from start to finish without ever having to change pots.

This is a Cottage Craft Works exclusive strainer stand; it will fit the Garden Way and the Victorio Strainers as pictured, as well as others made with the same design and size.  The oak strainer stand mounts on a saw horse or metal bench stand where it can be  bolted down to the top (not included).  We have this one mounted on a metal stand. It has a wide enough base so it will not tip over when the side pot becomes full. This is just at the right height to comfortably process the juice without lifting up to a table or counter height; this was another problem we had on our first batch. 

Our strainer stand is made of oak and finished in clear exterior grade marine varnish for years of service.  The one in the picture has been in use for over 25 years and has processed many gallons of tomato and grape juices.  It will come predrilled with 3” bolts and wing nuts to mount onto a saw horse.
