Signing UpStep 1Cutting out The Circles
You will need to cut out three circles from your scrap metal.
First you need to mark the circles on to the scrap metal Using a stencil to trace your circles, either a paint can or a roll of tape or anything with a flat edge that is round. After you have your circles drawn, you then proceed to cut them out. Using either a plasma torch or an angle grinder, cut out the circles as round as you can. you will end up with three similar disks. Don't worry about cleaning up the edges that will come later.

i like to use thinner metal and ive started to thread the rod instead of weld it as for my my welds suck (i was in the shaping proses and the weld failed i was pissed thru the thing across the shop), i cover the nut up with a coned piece of metal... i kinda wanna put one in a sand blaster so i can get a bead blast Finnish then clear coat it so it shines and docent rust...
post how much they would be if you sell a few.
Thanks. Q www.wingedheartart.com
