    I used buffet steamer pans when I did my 1919's. If you are doing just handgun or small parts, a glass pan will work.

        I saw a stainless tray at home depot for a good price.
        It's used for masonry work.

          These tend to rust a bit... Go to a restaurant supply store and get some trays. a couple of mixing bowls are good for small parts. get a couple set of stainless tongs too.

          Get a tray big enough for an AK and for a barrel. once you start you can't stop. all your mags will be reparked, hell even your silverware will parked eventually.....

                Pick and save (big lots) has big stainless steel pots that will handle most receivers.

                  You could find a sheetmetal shop and have them build one for you. You can do it in one piece and 4 welds. Any size you like

                    for the slides... Id say a large ceramic dish... 4" deep or so.

                    FYI... Bro - dont use your wife's super fancy stainless steel rubber gripped thermometer from bed bath and beyond... or you'll be sorry

                      home Parkerizing

                      I'm just now getting myself set up to do some. I found some utensils at Walmart that are high temp plastic on the business end, tongs and spoon with drain holes. It seems like a good idea to avoid scratching the parts I'm working on. I'm not sure stainless is necessary. If it gets parked, so what.

                        To parkerize a barrel and an AK receiver, I bought one of those fish steamer pans from ebay. It's a long oval shaped pan with a lid, but I don't use the lid. Cost about $10, but make sure it's stainless steel. During the parkerizing process, some of the steel is reacting with the acid, so if you use a plain steel pan, it won't last as long as a stainless steel pan. Also, you wouldn't want the pan to consume the parkerizing reactants in the solution, Mo or Zn along with the phosphate.
