Yesterday when I posted pictures of the finish, I was in a terrible hurry rushing off to work. Today I had time to wipe them off with a clean, dry cloth, & get some better pictures of the hard won results.
I wrapped them up in a USMC wool blanket made in 1945. Next Sunday my Dad & I are driving down to deliver these to my brother. The three of us are going to have lunch together.
I hope that anybody who reads this thread & finds himself in a similar situation decides to take their stainless to a professional metal finisher.
