Thanks Lads  :beer:

Only had an hour in the shop tonight so I decided to make the shoot ,were hopefully molten iron will flow from .

So I grabbed an off cut of 100mm box .


Set it at an angle I was happy with and marked both sides with chalk .



A couple of minutes with an angle grinder .



so I now had a shoot shape .



I decided to bend out the sides using a 2ft adjustable.

 

Once I was happy with the angle , mark one eye ball .

 

I needed to bend the other side the same , the original measurement between the walls was 90mm

 

I had bent the first side out 20 mm



so all i had too do was bend the other out until the gap was 130mm



then both would be bent equal , well close enough for this job.

the bit scrap that was cut from the box previous was re welded in at the front for the shoot to form a lip.






The shoot was then welded to the drop bottom .







would have took me 40 minutes if I did not stop to take photos  :lol: :lol: :lol:


Cheers Rob
