craig Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Made this out of a 9" x 1-1/4" x 1/4" Some type of high carbon agricultural steel...from spark testing I estimated around 60 or so pts. carbon. It was mainly for welding practice, as you can see it is not welded as far back as I wanted it to be. Next one will be done slightly different.

craig Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 Thanks !! I wasn't expecting much as the bar I started with was heavily pitted with rust as you can see...I just went over it good with the wire wheel before heating to remove the loose stuff.
