What a great idea. Maybe sandblasting those threads and the rest would make the job much easier for you, if you can get access to one of course.
Thanks. Good question. Sandblasting was an option that we considered early on as it would have solved that problem but the clean silver finish would give the souvenirs a very "new" look about them that would take away the "old" look that we were hoping to keep.
@@railwaymaniacs7392 Good point. 👍
Make ideal steam locomotives. Wheels, boiler and some flat parts for cab and so forth.
Oh yes!!
When will 34058 Sir Frederick Pile be restored to working order?
No gloves when using bench grinders!
Noted!
