harvesting cast iron 

Very nice work. I like the way you reclaim metal and don’t give up when you’re machine didn’t work to your standard

Milling wide sections of cast iron can be a real chore- and especially if a decent flatness is sought. I dulled at least two shell mills and one slab cutter milling a casting to be a scraping practice piece. This is where a tool and cutter grinder would really come in handy.

I wish I could have found a hunk of cast iron to harvest here recently when I had to order a 3 inch square piece on line. 3 inch square cast iron cost me $72 delivered to my door. No joke. 😱
