Reply to comment by doctorzaius6969 in Still using a 1930s pressure canner (from National Pressure Cooker Co.) that's been used by my family for 5 generations by ubermaker77

I've only used it at 30 pounds pressure - more than enough to can what I want.

30 pounds pressure? Are you sure? That's 206 kPa, that's so high, it would be illegal in my country for safety reasons.

Those are the instructions in my recipes. Besides, they all have a safety valve. Sure, you'll spray whatever you're cooking on the ceiling, but I've never had it happen to me.
