\nHmm, what a mysterious part this is.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nSince they said it’s okay to do whatever we want, I’ll machine the part they brought in and reuse it.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nWe’re not a custom shop or a machine shop, so we don’t have thick iron like this lying around\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nSince it’s rough, I’ll soak it in solution to erode the plating on the surface and then polish it.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nAdding a radius to the outer edge should make it look a bit more refined.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThe other day I created this shape from iron with the mill scale removed\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nOf course, I’ll apply a radius to the outer edge, and it’ll look nice and round.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThis is how it should turn out, I think. I’ll proceed using one side as the reference.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThe dimensions are a bit tricky. Instead of using a spacer, I’ll fine-tune it\u2014fewer parts means better serviceability, which means it looks cooler.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"
\nSince it’s so thick, welding is a breeze\u2014I can just crank up the amperage and go.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nWhen I use our wire brush tool, the scale comes off in a flash\u2014perfect.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nRight and left have directionality, so I marked them.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"
\nI rejected the previous plan and instead fixed the plate on the outside for easy attachment and removal.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nNext I’ll polish it and apply rust preventative oil. After that, please have it painted or finished wherever you like.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"
\n\u2191I feel like the configuration for that other matter might be off, so please double-check it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
