Several months ago I saw a story on television about a woman who had the world's largest collection of salt and pepper shakers. She even had a separate storage place for them, and the town where she lived bought them from her and was going to create a salt and pepper shaker museum to attract tourists (yeah, it's causing some controversy). I'm not sure if she has these shakers shaped like metal nut bolts, but someone should contact the museum and tell them about them.
You get the salt and pepper out by bending the bolts. Not from the ends, but from the grooves along the side. Now that's different.

Anyone know a dealer/retailer for these in the US?

Wouldn't this thing only work if it was fully filled with peppercorns? How would you grind them down simply by bending this thing when theres only a few kernels left?

That would be a Grinder, not a shaker :-)
