Nice display, and great example of trash cleaned to a recognizable collectible item. How did you clean it?

Hay Snowy,
I have a little shop in tha corner of tha shed.
I have a 6" bench grinder with a steel brush
that did most of tha cleanin. I also used a drill
with a steel brush to get in hard to get spots.
I also used a small round file.
Here's a pic,
Sometimes things may be better if cleaned up.
That close-up above shows my oldest found
patent date. 1863.
It was a piece of trash until I cleaned. That's
when I discovered my oldest patent date.
A late happy dance ensued....lol
Except, it did'n help with tha old Tabdog.
OMG!!!!!! SOMEBODY PUT SOME CLOTHES ON THA TAB!!!!
Happy Huntin,

Cool... quite a process though. I'm not sure I have that much patience to clean my "trash" .. but I should learn huh...
Nice job cleaning that stuff up!
