I have a set of cast-iron I found under an abandoned trailer next to a junkyard. They cost exactly nothing and I got to have nerdy fun restoring them over a weekend afternoon, I have been using them for 20 years.
That sounds like the best set of cast iron.
Lol a few minutes with an angle grinder and a flap wheel will take it back down to metal real fast.
Sure, but not having those tools, I used the wonders of SCIENCE.
Some washing soda, a steel rod, a 12v battery charger and a tub of water and overnight all the rust had migrated to the steel rod.
That is a much cooler way than simple abrasives.
