And that is now cleaned up saw found in a bin, still need to get a hard enough file to sharping it and see if it can be used again but a bit of a before and after of how rusted it was yesterday to now close to a mirror finish. Just used boiled linseed for the handle and sanded best I could.

final cleaned up saw with de rusted blades that’s kinda polished and a sanded and oiled handle Cleaned up saw showing how the blade now reflects when at the right angle but still has some tarnish but that gives it a story and a bit of age so I like it.How the saw looked when I found it with a healthy layer of rust over the full blade and chipped black paint that was heavily faded on the handle

I’m not exaggerating with this event, he was so pissed off on my behalf that my pay was so low he left his desk and got me my first real pay raise to match the promotion that was title only close 2 years after I was promoted to artist from graduate. The promotion had basicly no pay change.

It eventually got up to like 26 ish but only cos a director I was working with at the studio for visibly disgusted when I told him how much I was making while being 50% of his art team for a game. He said nothing left and came back a hour later with news of a pay bump. I think of him often.
