[QUOTE="Sandta, post: 507155, member: 3188"] A few weeks ago (maybe more) i unearthed a huge padlock [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/3188/1565996080_img_8905.jpg[/img] After a hundred ish years buried, restoration was fanciful at best :rolleyes: I started with a wire brush , then soaking in molasses (4 weeks all up) As time went on chunks of rust flaked off until i thought ,if i keep going there wont be anything left. So i filled the gaping holes with car bog , and a bit of paint. ;) [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/3188/1565996694_img_8982.jpg[/img] Not too bad i reckon [/QUOTE]
