Works on bridges
There we go then. Sounds like a solid plan.
Break the heating gear out!

theres a video of them doing it on you tube , after accidents , where things run into bridges but bridges are beams and its a lot easier to work out on a beam .Works on bridges
The amount of heat that would need would be scary. Maybe build a fire under it? Knowing my luck would make it far worse.There we go then. Sounds like a solid plan.

Haha easier on a beam, not sure it's for novicestheres a video of them doing it on you tube , after accidents , where things run into bridges but bridges are beams and its a lot easier to work out on a beam .
Cut the legs off, turn it over, weld them back on?the question is though was it bent to start with and if not it might have curled up welding the legs on . cant see welding on it would introduce that much heat in it to warp at that thickness
Thanks but no thanks - 2 or 3 thou is hard enough....I was going to ask @minimutly I am sure he would love the practice
This, surely.Think it may have reduced in thickness around the edge from years of cleaning it up with a grinder?
This, surely.
36mm would have started out as inchalf, no?
weld it up and grind it back you will be an expert at running beads by the time your finishedAnd there was me expecting a sensible suggestion
If @pressbrake1 wanted a test piece for his humongous grinder I would glady send it to him. Might be a bit big and heavy even for that though.
Anyway this is a welding forum. Welding broke it. Must be able to fix it.
