Re: found a 7\" x 16\' steel pipe here at work
Chances are it's six inch pipe ( 6 5/8" o.d.) /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
If it is you can cut it in half. Find some JD disc separators. Weld these on top for caps. They take the plain old pipe from ugly to beautiful lamp posts. The separators have an urn look that makes a perfect lamp post when put on to of the pipe.
A sixteen footer would make a nice hinge post for a five hundred pound gate if it isn't over twenty foot long and you can go down ten or eleven feet deep with concrete.
If it's plasma cut lengthwise into quarters you have perfect corners for say a truck bed. That's how I made Lucy's bed corners. Everyone assumes I have a killer brake. Nope, just a plasma and more than a bushel basket of patience.
