I started cleaning up this steel railway sleeper that I can use at home as a surface for forging. The goal was to remove all the rust on the top and sand all the marks off. If there are any marks then while forging the marks will transfer from the steel to the forged metal. I used an angle grinder to remove the rust but it left deep scratches which I have sanded but I think it is still going to take a lot more sanding.
