Doing a side project for a company I work with on occasion. 77" X 19" X 3/8" plate steel. two 1/2" holes to bolt to the floor, two 3.5" radius circles cut out the other side.
Man, the plasma is nice for doing things like this. Template is 1/4" scrap plywood. Pakmaster 50 with the high performance drag tip.
Lots of 4 1/2" grinder work dressing the sheared edges.
4 done tonight, 2 more to do, then I have to paint them... I hate painting.
They have a little bow from the shearing, not sure if I will try and take that out or not, probably call the customer and ask what they think tomorrow.
One day, I will have a bigger shop, we are taking an important step towards that by buying a new house with LAND....
