As we have mentioned Hurricane Harvey came through our area. We ended up with 3' +/- flood water in our homes and shops.
My tools have been going through clean up and de-rusting.Saw tables and other tools came first. On my contractor's saw all
that was needed was to remove the rust from saw tables and the like. I put Johnson's paste wax on my tools. If you haven't
tried it, you should. One can will last you for years. Fortunately, our home has been fixed along with furniture.
Some of you may not know that wrapping hand tools with with aluminum foil will discourage rusting. Well today I worked on
wood chisels and saws. If rust was there, I either sanded it off or buffed with a wire wheel. I also wrap files and rasps. After
the tools are cleaned, I will wrap the seldom used tools with foil.
This is my second flood waters to recover from.
