Way to go, @walchit!  This post has it all, the rescue, the restoration, and then an awesome first cook.  Nicely done, sir.

Thanks guys! I dont see any of the swirly marks from the polycarbide wheel anymore, I will go out and get a pic. It seemed to get some of the sides all the way seasoned with all that walnut in there. I should have rotated it while I was cooking, but it was dark out there by the time I started cooking. I poured water in it and scraped around in there, then dumped it out and wiped it out with a paper towel. Added more oil, then turned it upside down in the 26 and added more oil to the backside. I need to do a little more research on proper care.

Using it is the key



I have 2 flat tops and this thing to keep up on now. Lol. But it will definitely get some more use

That's a damn fine find right there.  Tell us Andy, how hot does a chimney get?  LOLOL!!
Wound pics, or it didn't happen.  ;)

Cool thread. Congratulations on a rare find! And I like the first cook pictures after all the hard work!

Looks good Andy! Keep using it and the seasoning will protect it from rusting again.
