So what did you buy today

Those Big BULLETS are far and few to be found. Are you thinking of the battery charger and a sacrificial chunk of iron with water And baking soda? (for the RUST)?

I sprayed it with Gibbs penetrating oil. I was going to make wood wedges to get below the jaws to put some pressure and keep spraying. I had a really rough 4” I got loosened up this way. The guy it came from bought everything at auction then filled his place. This was sitting there behind a truck he stopped driving in 2015 so it showed up around then. Stuff got unloaded on the driveway and stayed there.

This might be a little off topic but how are you guys cleaning up a rusty chain? I have found Muriatic Acid does a fair job on some old chains here. Of course you got rinse and oil them after the dip.

for really stuck stuff I use a 50/50 acetone & ATF mix. otherwise PB blaster or WD-40.

An Arboristsite member recommended that years ago for rusty chains. That's what I've been using ever since. It really works great on chains that have been left outside.
