For some reason your website keeps turning the photo upside down. Tried to reliad and it did it again.

A fabric iron. Hot coals were placed in the bowl to heat it.

Hi nvineyar, if you are using images from your phone sometimes they will need to be re-oriented on a desktop computer and saved before uploading...I've fixed it for you this time. :)

Also, if you are taking pics on iPhone, you have to turn the phone horizontally for pic to come out right on here. TubeAmp is correct, I have one of these Chinese irons also.
