Old Rusted Broken 3 Level Tool Box - Restoration Workshop DC

Hello guys! How are you doing? Hope great!

In this video i show how to restore a old rusted Broken 3 level tool box.
I find this tool box when in the middle of iron scrap in a friend house, so my friend give the box to me for free hehe'
I don't know how many years this tool box have, i thin probably 30 years or more.
To do this job i need a help of my plier, chisel, screwdriver, hand drill, drill and of course Mr Fox.
So to start the restoration i begin using penetrating oil to make more easy to disassemble.
The box was super stucked and with a broken handle which make my job more hard.
After put a lot of penetrating oil i begin doing little holes with a hand drill.
With all holes done, i start to drill the rivets to disassemble.
To remove all the remais of rivets i used a chisel, not a propely tool to this job but worked.
After that with a screwdriver i disassemble all the conections.
All parts are full of dirt and rust, so i give a little clean to remove the superficial dirt.
Now with all parts half cleaned i give them a bath with hot water and Sodium hydroxide, this chemical will remove all the deep dirt and melt some paint.
With all parts cleaned from the bath i begin remove the old paint with paint stripper, this process took me 8 hours to be done.
Before i remove the rust i debend all the imperfections on the surface.
Now is time to remove all the rust, and for that i used hidrochloric acid, the resut was impressive but the parts get rusted really fast.
There was some holes that the rust made so i fill them with filler and sanded with 120G.
So is time to paint, and for that i used hammered paint Blue.
I Also make some rubber base protections to prevent from damage.
Now i assemble all parts with new rivets and washers, the assemble was kinda hard, took me 2 hours to be done.
The result was perfect, i think.
What do you think?
