Maggie’s The Welding and Metalworking Thread

[Charlie112]

I put together 2 target stands and some midget stripper poles for obstacles for USPSA style practice in my back yard. Mostly stuff I had laying around from old projects.

Old rollbar tubing and some 1x2 rectangle tubing

The obstacles were made out of some CM tubing I was using to build a set of wheelie bars.

Been a whole since I've used any of these tools... had to re-learn some atuff.

You don’t by chance have those midget strippers hanging around those polls do ya..as always.. asking for a friend.. ️

Got this all made up to reinforce my dipping garage door. 3/8x 3/4 x24. Started as 1" wide. Drilled and tapped 10-32. Going to be a bit til I can install it.

Broke tibia fibula on Monday and have a tibia rod in my leg now. More details in the that's not gonna buff out thread.

That looks like a 12" thick concrete wall between the interior and exterior steel, true? Then maybe a 12" cap on top? That is a heck of a "storm shelter"!

Exactly. 12" 4000psi concrete on a 24x36 footer and 8" slab with 1/2" rebar. 1/4" plate inside and out tied together with 1/2" rebar every 12 inches.

No. Most of what I work with is inconel. I don't think it's as biocompatible.
