Great information Dave, like Cliff said it will likely be really tough to find a good blue version but some diligence might score one.
Haven't got much to show for the last couple days, Ive been cleaning up lots of fasteners and blackening with CASWELL's black oxide and their sealer and cleaning up the fasteners that stay natural and coating them with EXO Armour. Tedious work but that's what makes a difference and hopefully they won't corrode for a long time.
Looks like your giving it your best. I need a project!
