Are you just experimenting with the barrel cut offs or are you making something out of them?
 
That's beautiful Phil, I have also had good results with rust bluing with BC Plum Brown.

Left one is ferric chloride + copper sulfate + ethanol/nitric acid + distilled water.
Right one is same mix plus antimony trichloride (which I have to remake because it also prob has some of the non-stick from the pan which dissolved in the process. Glass cookware on order from Amazon..
