Hi Lads Not cast that base yet Lots of prep work first Made up a set of crucible tongs today Nothing special just 1 inch flat bar and a bit of welding A good tip for bending flat bar is to cut the outside of the bend 2/3 of the way through bend it then a couple of weld beads and you are done John |
