.25 restoration…. an interesting project

My friend gave me this to fix. All rusted. No idea what to do with it… will be a great learning project.

First, I need to create a penetrating oil … which I did. Works better than WD-40. Then I need to take it apart as much as I can and put it in some rust removal chemical. I have more than one method for that.

The dude wants me to create a new barrel for this. I told him to get me a .25 button. If he can't, I'll have to make my own button… never did that before.

Anyway…
