Cordless Makita Grinder rusted solid after being salvaged from a sunken boat.

Amazingly, this makita grinder was on board a local fishing boat that sadly capsized.
Luckily amd thankfully, all the crew were rescued, and no one was injured.
The boat was eventually recovered, and this grinder salvaged from inside after laying submerged in sea water.

The grinder was only a few weeks old, so it was dropped in to see if it could be repaired.
The batteries were obviously completely destroyed, and it looked like this grinder was too.

But in a true testimony to makita quality and repairability, all it needed was a switch, battery receiver, and a few spade connectors.
It was unbelievable after seeing the amount of corrosion that was on it.
