Lugers saved from the Corrosion Monster

Beautiful work! I restore guns as a hobby, and I can fully appreciate the work you put into something like that. Most of you already know this, but it's worth pointing out that this is far from the run-of-the mill polish and blue you get when you go to a regular bluing shop, where they use buffers and other equipment to expedite the job. Not even in the same ballpark. This is a craft (and a lot of tedious work) that few will ever master. Very well done, Sir!

PS: It would also be interesting to see a picture of your fingertips after doing a job like that...
