Jack-O-Lantern Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 4' long, 2" square. Mild steel. Found at a flea market. Anyone know if it could be hardened? I want to make guillotine fuller, and butcher bits out of it. I kinda think it won't work very well. This first pic is of a 2 to 1and 1/4 trailer hitch adapter. Which is a strong and easy to fabricate frame for a guillotine. Especially for us non-welders. Can the 2" thick piece be hardend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 No telling from here Jack. What did the spark test look like? How about cutting a thin section off heating to critical and quenching it to see? You can make a guillotine tool that bolts or rivets together, everything doesn't need to be welded you know.

Leon Renaud Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 it's a receiver hitch adapter and it's made of mild steel. It allows you to use a heavier grade hitch in the lighter receiver . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
