Thread: Rust - What am I doing wrong?

I cant see what is reacting to be honest. The rifle doesn't touch the steel safe anywhere. But..... just to be safe, tomorrow I will cut up some old carpet and put it in the bottom of the safe as the material currently there is rather thin.

Just opened the safe for a nosey, the heat rod seems to be doing its job, nice and warm in there.
