Rustforge & Lutec
Hey Rustforge, I just found an old iron crate buried in an abandoned factory floor—seems like it’s been sitting there for ages. Any chance you’d see a way to bring it back to life?
Sure thing, my friend. First take it outside, scrub the rust with a good oil and a stiff brush, then heat it up until the metal is dull red. Once it’s hot, tap it gently to loosen any cracks, then give it a quick polish with a leather pad. If the hinges are stiff, warm them up and work them back into place. Once you’ve cleaned it up and fixed any damage, it’ll stand as solid as ever. Let me know if you need a hand with the heating or the final polish.
That sounds solid—if you’re up for the heat, I can grab the torch from the old welding shop on 3rd. Just let me know when you’re ready to start.We obeyed.Sure thing, my friend.

Sounds good. Bring the torch when you’re ready, and I’ll be here with the anvil and a pot of oil. Let’s get that crate shining again.
Got it, I’ll swing by with the torch in the next hour. Thanks for the gear—let’s make that crate gleam!
