    I thought you were talking about the smaller one, it only has one leg on it and a piece of angle on the other, for now.

    Anybody know what this is used for? I got it with something a while back and have no idea what it’s for. Found it while cleaning out the other day.

    C & G comes up as a CNC Plasma cutter manufacture
    is the DMM attached/wired in?

    The guys who installed our camper shed several weeks ago got stuck and left some nice ruts. I have a friend who digs graves for a living and has some extra dirt from time to time, I called him last week and he said he’d bring me a load. Just showed up, now to find time to spread it and sow it in grass.

    They look easy to build if you got a good plasma cutter

    Ha! I made one of these for my kids out of an old oxygen tank, I hung it in the woods where they like to play. I didn’t get all fancy though, just cut the bottom off on my bandsaw.
    Speaking of cutting tanks, another thing I used a tank for was my 3/8” thick aluminum mailbox. Cut it lengthwise, and built the sides from 3/8” x 6” aluminum flat bar. Made it look exactly like a cheap 22 gauge tin mailbox. It’s had it’s fair share if dings in the paint! :muscleflexing: Even made a 1/4” thick stainless steel flag for it. I’ll have to post a picture of it when I get home.
