Ok I'll jump in, try a cooking shop, look for a coarse chip maker
(sits on a counter) alot have them in the bargain bin because they
don't sell well. Just wash the tatter, put in the slide and lift the
handle, perfect rough cut chips 1/2 inch square..something like the
English chip sold everywhere in London. I've got my Grandmas, seen
them in antique shops and garage sales as well.
