Finally Red Head score!!
« on: September 09, 2016, 06:18:46 AM »
So I find this code EE redhead for sale $100
On the app close 5
   Picked it up for $80 . I small scuff on lid other
Than that usual slight rust at lid handle and
Leg joints. Lid handle crooked like it was dropped
Legs loose and sweepers frozen. But still a solid
Kettle.. Where do I start the restore first?
Should I bend the handle straight or leave it?

A tip for the rear legs - swap them side for side. The friction indentation will contact the leg at a different location than before.

Nice pickup. 👍

For the rear legs you can rub the indentations back out from the inside with a 3/8" socket on an extension.

searching for an 18" twist ash pan.
