2012-Apr-21 - Wooroloo - Steelworks #34
I took it very easy today - just 9.00am to 4.00 pm.

I completed the second bevel.

This time I had much more luck with the metal cutting.

I had decided that I wanted to use my 5inch angle grinder rather than the scary 9 inch machine.

I dropped in to the hardware for more cutting disks.

They recommended that I use the ultra thin disks.

I also remembered that before I had more success when I used a piece of steel as a straight edge guide.

With the combination of a straight edge and the thin disks I had much more control over the cutting process and ended up with the correct insertion steel (see mistake made last week).

Welding took a lot of time again.

The welds are a little bit ugly in a few places but very strong.
