Warning: that cheap cast iron you found might be a waste of time

I grabbed an old skillet from a flea market in Tulsa for $10, thinking I'd just strip and reseason it. Turned out the thing had a hairline crack that opened up after my first heat cycle, ruining the whole piece. Has anyone else dealt with hidden flaws in vintage iron?

Nah, I've had way more luck than trouble with cheap vintage iron.
