That's a good price. I hate those grill pans, though. I'm about done buying new cast iron. I hate that the manufacturing process is giving us rough as hell surfaces. They're not even trying anymore to make them smooth. My own collection is pretty good, any new pieces I get will probably be eBay specials and need a little TLC. |

You need a drill and one of those round sanding discs and do it yourself. Prepare to have some black snot for a day or two and do it outside.

You know just thinking here if you have an air compressor an auto body DA type orbital sander would make short work of this. Harbor Freight has a cheap DA that would get ya through your pans before failing. Money in the bank.

I was thinking about how I went about this (2 years ago) and yeah, I think it also involved an angle grinder.
I tried to leave the seasoning on the sides which was next to impossible with the odd angles and the bottom slope. I guess I could have pulled out the dremel tool and cleaned up the sides, but Meh. Here is my ugly but baby bottom smooth cast iron pan. I tried to show the reflection in the bottom, not sure how it will turn out on a crappy cell phone |

I don't know, its a huge pain in the azz. I would end up selling you my pan and starting over. Have you tried ebay for an older pan? I just don't want CP drama if something doesn't work out. It's not that I wouldn't, just hesitant as hell.

I've looked at eBay, but I really like the 12-inch size, and that size in a vintage pan is hella expensive.
