re: What's the best way to smooth a cast iron round bottom pot

I've done it and was not satisfied. It took the tops off the high spots and left pits where the low places were. BTW the old pots I've collected started out smooth. They didn't get that way through use. They just got better through use.

If you ever try again, additional time with the disc should solve that problem. It takes some time to get the pits and peaks all to the same level.

I have had some great results using coarse salt as the last step to get that final finish.
