Making stuff from @pete metal

[pressbrake1]

As a lot of us bought some 220/900/20 plate off @Pete. As there’s a lot of hoarding going on here I thought I’d post some of what I’m doing with it.
First job are heavy fixtures for the planer
Next job is to machine all over and drill and tap the holes

Superb stuff. Nice to see hem getting used - and what a use!

Fixture plate for making smash machine blades. It’s kind of ironic that I don’t make machine tools anymore I just make things to smash things
