Restoring Cast Iron Pan Found from Dumpster

I found this cast iron skillet from a dumpster and decided to restore it. It's very rusty and it's missing a handle so I need to make a new handle. Funnily enough it was the same dumpster I found the previous cast iron pan too.
I started by cleaning all the burn stuff that was loose of first. It will be much nicer to laser clean when I don't have to burn those off with the laser. Next Iaser cleaned the pan. More info about the devices you can find from: laser.w2m.fi/laser-cleaning/?...
Next I sterilized the pan with isopropyl alcohol. Laser cleaning should clean everything off but since the cast surface is porous and there might be residues of motor oil or some other unhealthy oils fro mthe dumpster I decided to do this anyways.
I drilled a hole to make the handle removable. The pan is so heavy I didn't want to friction fit, especially since I will be heating and cooling it over and over again. Friction fitted handly would probably get loose really fast. I added a ciountersunk hole to make the screw sit flush with the cast iron for nicer look.
Now the pan was ready to be seasoned. I used canola oil and did 5 coats. I wiped the pan with liberal amoubt of oil and then wiped off any excess oil. Nexi it was put into the oven for an hour to burn on each coat. I had my oven se to 230 degrees celcius.
I took a piece of ash wood. It's actually "leftover" piece from my previous project where I made base for the air compressor. I lathed teh handle round first and then used a special technique to turn the other end of the handle oval. I off centered the other end of teh piece while turning. The other end stayed round. Oval handle is much more ergonomic, which is why hammers etc have oval handles too. The finished handle was treated with linseed oil and attached to teh pan with a screw.

Safety tip: If you see a random cast iron pan, don't know it's history, and want to clean it for yourself, you should always do a lead test on the surface of the pan. Some people use cast iron pans to melt lead for some hobby things.

I had a friend of mine that worked at a steel factory that recycled steel and other metals. He brought me two cast iron skillets that were just minutes from being melted. I cleaned them up and we still use them 25 years later. Wish I had a laser to do the cleaning. All I had was a wire brush for my drill. It took a couple of hours to clean two small skillets. Awesome job.

I have a couple of critiques. First, although the laser is a good way to clean up the rust, you may want to follow up by sandblasting it to remove all of the etched marks it will make for a more uniform surface. Secondly when your seasoning the pan, you should always put it in the oven upside down. You do not want oil pooling in the bottom of the pan. The whole purpose is polymerization and when you have too much oil pulling in one area it doesn't polymerize into a non-stick surface it becomes very sticky and tar-like. Also you need to make sure that the temperature is reaching at least 450° Fahrenheit. Other than that an interesting video.

The only thing that I'd change about your seasoning process is to place the pan upside down in the oven so the oil won't pool & make a gunky mess. Also, the 'true' test of the seasoning on a cast iron pan is to fry an egg... it should slide out without sticking. If you need to scrape it out, go re-season it until it is non-stick.

The seasoning of a pan is super important, but we are just talking about carbon steel or cast iron skillets. Non stick pans dont really need it at all, but there coating is horrendous for your health when it starts to peel. cast iron will keep for long after you are dead if you look after it.

Yes, I would cook with this pan. Cleaned up and seasoned, it's fine. I have done similar in the past, but I used oven cleaner and some emery cloth. Hard to believe anything nasty could have survived the laser cleaning. Still a cleaning with isopropyl alcohol couldn't hurt. Good job.

When putting the pan in the oven, should have the pan upside down as the oil will not ‘pool’. Great work, live seeing old thrown away items given a second life.

@jornhaga1652 Год назад

Nah, you put it in the oven at a temperature lower than the flash point of the oil. Most cooking oils state the flash point on the label. I’ll render tallow or salt pork in a new pan then coat the pan with it still pooled in the pan. Put it in the oven at 200 deg. F and go to bed. It’s been done that way hundreds of years.

@Sweetearth1958 Год назад

My Grandfather used to toss the cast iron into the furnace until it was red hot and all the stuff burned off. Then it got wire brushed, washed with soap and water, dried over a stove burner and re-seasoned in the oven. I do the same, except I use the BBQ. You do have to be careful to let it cool in the BBQ or it could crack. Turn out good as new. Still using these 150 year old pans today. Love your video.

@@The.Padgetts The only thing "seasoning" does to a cast iron is make it non-stick or "less likely to stick", I was referring more to the general iron surface. I've seen it on another channel before, really pretty to have super smooth cast iron before the seasoning.

@@The.Padgetts Your theory is wrong. The layers don't end up even, because the underlying surface is fucked up. Think of trying to paint over seams in drywall - it never looks proper.

Once again, excellent restoration, OT! :D I loved that you actually started the video of you getting the cast iron pan from the dumpster much like how you did with that other cast iron pan video you did a couple of years ago (only with the camera filmed on your legs as you struggled to retrieve said pan. XD)! Got to see the good old laser cleaner again, never a bad time when that thing comes around! I also loved that the Ducktor took some time off in order to take a swim over the nearby little lake as you were cooking, which was really cute (hey, the little, yellow guy's been working countless times these past several years, he deserves a little break)! You not only went through 5 doses of canola oil, but also some alcohol in order to truly keep the pan clean, sanitized, deodorized, and 100% safe to make food on, and you did a terrific job in the process (also, to answer your question; yeah, I think I might would eat food that was made on a cooking appliance from the trash, IF it went through all safety steps first, ha-ha)! Those vegetables, and meat you made on the pan came out wonderfully! Glad you enjoyed it (I know that in the previous restored cast iron pan video near the end after you made pancakes, topped them off with whipped cream, and (I'm assuming jam), you took a bite of each pancake, and since there were 9 of them, each one spelled out "S-U-B-S-C-R-I-B-E", which I thought was the neatest, and most creative subscribe recommendation from your channel to date)! Can't wait for the next restoration video!

A small tip when drilling metals like cast iron and hard steel ... go slow! ... A good rule of thumb is 'if you're making dust your bit is spinning too fast'. As always another great video! p.s. Safflower oil is better than canola oil for cast iron seasoning due to its higher smoke point

Why does it matter? Honest question. Like is it more likely to break?

@kytepheonix Год назад

@@blueismylove3128 basically when drilling metal you want to make chips (or flakes) ... If you are making dust then your bit is spinning to fast which causes a lot of heat to build up - when a drill bit gets hot it looses it's temper and gets dull AND when the metal you are drilling into gets hot it can actually starts to work harden a little which means it's gets harder as you drill. Your ideal when going through metal is to make those nice spring shaped spiral chips you'll see on some machining channels.
