I have a bucket full of rusty nuts and bolts. What is the best way to get the rust off them?

A glass or plastic jar filled with just vinegar. Works wonders on rusty bits!

Try throwing them in the cement mixer with some sand

Up here you can buy something called CLR (calcium, lime, rust) which is available at places like Walmart, etc. It will definitely take card of that rust problem, just do them a handful at a time in a plastic container and in no time they're like new again (although even more vulnerable to rust than before I think). The stuff isn't cheap but neither are nuts and bolts.

Look in the archives of this board and find the topic of electrolytic cleaning, it does a fine job at a good price.

I bought a little sand blaster from Princess Auto and I use river sand. It's not nearly as agressive as commercial sand and works good on bolts and body parts.
