Cutting parts

admin

Spent a good portion of my day cutting parts on the burning table... nothing special. The material is hy-50 hot rolled plate 3/4". I tell you this old burning table may not a precision tool but it does do a decent job, and I love that I have more control over the quality of the parts that need to be cut.These are parts to an attachment for a drill rig that mounts to a monster crane.... I'm fabing the entire unit so I'm post as I go.I thought I took a few more pics of some of the other stuff I cut but I guess I didn't....Thanks for looking... Waving_________________Chris

Reply:Originally Posted by WeldordieI'm curious, as to why you set up the cuts to make two passes between the plates, instead of just one.  Thanks.
