Metallic baloney
Posted: Sat May 06, 2017 9:49 pm
I'm not sure even a blood offering to Hephaestus can help with pot metal but my brother bet me a case of Newcastle I couldn't fix these drawer handles so I accepted the challenge. Initially I thought they were brass but turns out they're painted pot metal. I don't think they are plated because the finish peels and flakes like shitty paint. I made a fixture to hold them aligned and drilled out the broken dinguses. Made new pieces from a welding rod and epoxied them in. A little touch up paint and it's beer o'clock 
Cheers.
