They are rusty! I got 2 to clean up to the point I can cook on them. The griddle is going to need a wire wheel and a lot of elbow grease. They did make a good dinner however.

    It looks very cool. A word of caution: depending on how old they are they might be contaminated with lead. I’d recommend giving them a test.

      I already plan on it, but I have heard that some lead test aren’t accurate. Do you know of any brands that are accurate?

        Sorry, no. When I was testing the paint in my old apartment my wife just bought some random kit online and it seemed to work. We didn’t do a lot of research on it beforehand or anything

        Also, a missed opportunity:

        already plan on i

        Could have been “I pan on it”
