    So far----so good---but Oh My Gawd that stuff is hard steel. I set it up in my big reciprocating hacksaw and let it saw away for half an hour, and all it did was rip off the paint and then wore all the teeth off the industrial hacksaw blade. I ended up cutting it with a 3" diameter abrasive wheel in my pneumatic grinder.---I can see where this is going to have to be jigged up properly and then pre-heated really good before I start welding it. I haven't done this before, so its "figure it out as I go".
