I wasn't real happy with the color after seasoning it yesterday. I did 2 more Coats with Pam this morning. Also built a stand and a lid lifter. Excited to use it.

The forethought of all the pictures  from very beginning to finished product is the "ticket" for the whole project. GREAT selling point for the use of electrolysis to save cast iron. The average person would have chunked it at first glance. You and that oven were "meant to be"!

Nice save
