I think I have seen members offer help with ideas here before,,, ( :eek: , :laughing: )

I got the RIGHT raw material today,, now, I gotta figure out what the project is,, :confused2:

on this stack, each plate is 24.75" X 15" X 2" thick,,
the bottom plate is shaped a little differently, but, as far as weight,, there is 8 plates.

The plate frame must weigh over 200 pounds,,
the other frame is so heavy, it is all that I can do to slide it on the rain slickened steel trailer bed.

When that adapter frame was sitting on the dirt, it was all that I could do to rock the frame to lift one side.

That adapter frame is so heavy, and so thick,, it might be useful as an anvil if something needs beat on,,,

So, what are your recommendations??

What would you do with this,, ? Help me with some ideas,,, THANKS!

Well your grandson is right that it would make for a great trebuchet weight. :)

Here locally steel is up to $12/hundred.

If those plates are cast steel, they're probably close to 400 lb a piece. Around here counterweight plates run $0.50 to over $1 a pound.

Sell it and buy a mini excavator with the money.
