Stan 8.5" x 3.5" x 2.5" In any order, length, width, or height doesn't matter, just substitute randomly. Steve I was hoping for a full-sized Mr. Peanut, myself. So soak in the solvent of choice until satisfied, then clean out the crevices with a Dremel and small brushes, buff with a loose buff and mag wheel polish of choice. Stan Pretty much my thoughts. See how acetone would do on a test area. If good, use it to take out the dark areas, although some look like the residue of sand castings. A little touch up with the Foredom, then a nice polish with a little compound on a cotton bench wheel. It's going to look sweet. I'll post pics when it's done. It was just one of those pieces laying there saying , "Take me home!" Steve |
