I figured I should pick a bad mill from my donor stash -- here's a rusty victim of my tiny shop's humidity, and spring flooding, plus about ten years of neglect. Let's see what we can do with that........ [ You are not allowed to view attachments ] |

During lunch I plopped it into a yogurt container with some water and washing soda, and connected it to my battery charger. When I came back the rust was gone and I slipped it into one of the Antiquorn's holders: [ You are not allowed to view attachments ] |

And a touch up by hand on the Antiquorn, and it looks like so.... Will it cut? I dunno. It isn't tomorrow yet..... Is it hydrogen embrittled because it was electrolyzed? I dunno, I haven't broken it yet..... Well what can you say at this point Steve? Uh, it's prettier... [ You are not allowed to view attachments ] |

The Antiquorn is a great name for it. Having a tool grinder is game changing. I looked at doing something similar, but a mate sold me a Clarkson Mk1 for a good price. |
