Plain Bread Pans work great for stove top rust blue projects like handguns and small parts.
You often times can't cram every part into the water at the same time, but that's OK.
Do a few, let them boil. While they are, coat the others (Express Rust).
When the first batch comes out of the water. Set them aside and put bunch #2 in the water.
Then take #1 batch and card them.
By tghe time carding & recoating with soln is done again on #1,,the ones in the water are ready to come out for the same procedure and these go back in.

Here's a Pre-27 that got an Express Rust Blue on the kitchen stove after engraving. With care it doesn't have to be the dull matted finish often talked about.
