Real interesting stuff HG, I love machine tools and welding, fabricating and re-purposing too. And you're right, the big boilers are awsome to look at, but hard, hot, filthy work for the first part, way too fast paced for me anymore.

It was always a sideline to pipefitting anyway, but glad I had the opportunity to get to know a little about them.

The garden gate captivates me, I believe I could build one with what I have here, (if I really wanted to) but don't think I've ever seen steel like he used for the leaves.
