Is there no "how not to" heading?
#36
I was searching for a thread of mine on my new log splitter project (Haven't found it yet) and as I was going through this one I noticed I failed to reply (on at least 2 occasions) to queries of how I managed to "de-rust" my machinery.
Basically it was elbow grease, scrapers, oil scotchbrite, disassembly, more elbow grease.
I drank a lot of beer, mainly to reduce the tears that were creating new rust!

Now that most of my stuff has been returned to useable condition I've found that I have ongoing rust potential. because I don't keep the shop heated all the time the cold machinery condenses the moist warm air that comes in when outside temperature is warmer.
I read somewhere a fan can help. So, I installed a ceiling fan that had become redundant in the house, so it goes on with the lights whenever I pop in for a few minutes of cold work or to get something, it seems to be working!
Sorry for the tardy reply guys, if I do that again don't be shy to whack me upside the head (verbally of course.)
