For hunters of bargain priced machinery, rust can be your friend. A layer
of rust on a machine really helps to keep the price down. Quite servicable
machines can be recovered from rust by the cheap machinist. Go here to see
my latest rust bucket project:

Enjoy.

Good job Jim - lets see some pics when finished and more important,
pics of work done on the machine.

What's your technique / formula for removing rust?

I think it's a sin when folks let perfectly good machine tools
deteriorate.

Nice job.

Are you going to have it turn a spindle at high speed with a D drill ?
Oh yes - method of removing rust ?
