How janked would you say is welding a metal bracket to the case instead of trying to source the correct rails for server hardware?

Asking for a friend of course. No server cases or brackets have been harmed (yet).

Oh no. I apparently can't just sand off the rust. I've to "reseal" the metal afterwards.

Apparently after sanding off the rust I've to drench it in acetone followed by heating it up to 300-400C and then quench it in either WD40 or vegetable (cooking) oil.

So uhm, how do you evenly heat rack rails up to 300-400C?
And where do I get a large enough heat resistant container to pore the oil into?

This is way harder than I thought it would be....

#doorknocker, this one looks authentic, at least from the 19th century

Gedenkplatte zu Ehren des Insektenforschers und -illustrators Johannes Goedaert im #Molenwaterpark seiner Heimatstadt #Middelburg. Die drei Bände seines Werks 𝘔𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘱𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘴 𝘕𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴 wurden zwischen 1662 und 1669 veröffentlicht. Sie fanden damals großen Anklang, sind dann aber für fast 400 Jahre in Vergessenheit geraten. Die menschlichen Genitalien auf der Platte stammen nicht von ihm. Glaub ich. 😋 // #Memorial for entomologist and illustrator #JohannesGoedaert in Molenwater Park in his hometown Middelburg. The three volumes of his book, 𝘔𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘱𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘴 𝘕𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴, were published between 1662-1669. They were a great success at the time, but almost forgotten for 400 years. The human genitalia depicted are not from his original illustrations. I think. 😋
