Here are some photos of the finished project in case anybody is interested..
Of course we are interested. Your projects always end up making some very modern looking stuff look like you
" STOLE " them from a museum: Still can't figure out where you put it to take it out the door.
Used plain old yellow mustard on my MRL medieval chopper and it does a great job giving an aged and textured look just by daubing it on and leaving on for a few hours. It doesn't really look like red rust and more like a dark grey patina, a little scotchbrite brings out the edges of bevels and cleans any excessive " crud " and lighten the finish. A little oiling or turtle wax seals the finish to a light grey with lots of activity but no deep pits: The finish looks a lot like and old pair of 19th century scissors that been in use for a few generation that I still use to trim my beard.
I like a weathered but not corroded finish of a piece that has seen much use but never neglected.You can easily give up your freedom. You have to fight hard to get it back!
i know that maybe u finished this project but it looked absolutely good the way it was but on second thought maybe aging the socket would have more effect...
