I have two shallow cast iron bowls.
I don't know what the original use of them were I had them in the workshop with water in; as rinsing bowls for small pieces of soldering.
They are quietly beautiful to behold, so maybe it was wrong of me, but I like to use things.
What followed was a fascinating study in evaporation. As well as rusting there were residues left from whatever got into the rinsing water.
Now I can't bear to clean them - as they are even more beautiful.
Maybe I should clean one/leave one as a comparison.
Ah, you've had much more success than I did with my "crystal growing kit". Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteTa! well, I did work really hard on it (ahem) - try my "method" i.e. neglect, it works!
