  • @francislematt7079
    @francislematt7079 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    A few suggestions. Instead of gun blue you could have used hot tin coating (tin melts around 232℃ so steel don't even get red hot). No electro plating process needed. Tin is food safe and durable enough for this application. Tin coating is common on copper pots. As for the moving grinding parts you just have to use it a lot first to let the parts coated in fat from coffee beans. If you don't think that is enough you can heat these and coat it with linseed oil until it smokes that polymerised fat becomes a durable coating like seasoning of the carbon steel / cast iron pans.

    A little tip I picked up from another video on removing varnish/ oil/ wax from wood is to use coarse steel wool and methylated spirit. It keeps the patina and shape but removes the old varnish and grime.
    I'd recommend you try it out, worked wonders for me on an old wooden plane.
