It was placed under the water source. Two thirds of the water went to nothing, one third up to the user. Actually the water pushed itself upwards. In Styria we called it bider. I don't know how they called it elsewhere. Sometimes in hilly areas it announced itself in many places with its characteristic banging. I also heard it many places in Carinthia.

Does Ingo at Jasen also have such a device?

I still see some working ones on my paths. This one in the picture is even from the manufacturer, though unusable. In the Idrija area we call them oven or koštrun. Maybe just because of the sound it makes. Many a housewife got water to the kitchen with its help over centuries.

Yes, oven is bider with us. So it's named the same!

It functioned well if there was enough water. If water was running low though, you had to restart it mechanically each time.

@dprapr, see, those few kilometers separate us and we'd already need a translator.

Janez has it. I just read the whole thing on the internet about how this thing works. Interesting!

Similar merry thing operates every year along the Povlje-Storžič path, a bit below Karničar hut on Javornik pasture

otiv, please link to the article on how it works. I entered oven, koštrun and bider into browser, but it offers only nonsense, not about the thing in the pic. lp Matjaž

Since we're on this, what is it for...
What was the purpose of setting up three wooden poles in front of the hut?

For the cauldron, it just seems a bit too big to me.
|
|
|
|
| dprapr30. 01. 2014 11:11:22 |
Yes! And what was cooked in that cauldron?

For žganci and sour milk you really don't need such a cauldron!
|
|
|
|
| miri30. 01. 2014 11:32:26 |
For 267 people an even bigger one.
Just kidding. And what are they cooking?
|

|
| otiv30. 01. 2014 11:35:43 |
Probably for cooking bed linen

Meanwhile the head cook is moaning as she puts
sheets with yellowish stains into the
cauldron and says: Oh dear, oh dear, how many kids will go mushroom picking!!
A bit reminiscent of mama Roza and papa Feliksa
from Klemenča around 1975

| dprapr30. 01. 2014 12:01:46 |
No, it's for cooking food with a special name that you still need to figure out!
And of course not at Klemenča cave, you probably didn't mean that, @cico.

No, I know Grohat, I just got a bit lost
with memories, sorry please!
