How much per tonne can you get for concrete mate?!…

Now now it’s not concrete
it’s small square steel plates and old ships rivets all rusted together with a skim of cement on top
Horrible stuff but weighty

do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
think it was called trimmings Mog ... the slugs from my punch/crop/shear had a much better value than basic scrap ... kept 'em in bins 'til I had a couple of tonnes ... boat builders love 'em - iron gravelNow now it’s not concrete

love watching team flip flop creating .... they're so very clever at what they get up to, with next to no techSaw that the other night
I love them guysbit like Mrs Mog can make something out of nothing
those mechanical brake presses they're using are all but banned in the uk ... my first was a 10ft x 60t Bronx .. once you press the go pedal you're committed 'til it does it's full cycle .. no backing off or stopping it like a hydraulic ... replaced it with 160t Scottish Machine Tools hydraulic 12 footer, which eventually gave way to my 320t x 12ft Bronx

Yesterday’s shenanigans was to fit a roller shutter door in the side of a 20’ shipping container so I could set up my profile table I forget to take pictures while I’m (in the zone)
anyway this door came from a scrap job I did on Monday, 3 phase 11’ wide so plasma cut a hole in the side of me box (that also came from a scrap job)
looks like it was made for the job
the box even had the electrics in, lights fitted and sockets just had to give it a 3 phase supply
then stick the table in

Todays job @V8Druid will like this one A B&S Massey power hammer
first was the “anvil” only 3/4 ton
then the hammer itself, about 3 ton
but had to be lifted in to the shed through the roof as only a little door and had to go on a concrete plinth 8’x4’ and 4’ thick
The things you do to earn a shilling

They make some nice stuff - a customer of mine had a support post for their porch done and it’s a lovely thing that looks like a grape vine dine out of T-washed galv wrought iron. I can’t find any pics of it on their site but it’s along the lines of this sculpture they madeTodays job @V8Druid will like this one

off loaded a bigger one o' they at an architetcural iron workers forge, 'tother side of Brecon, late 80,s ... was about 10 ft tall .. right beast and they skated it in from the door way ....... then picked up these from under a tarpaulin, led on some sleepers in the field beside their driveway ... they were restoring them
just the middle two ....
first Q when they uncovered 'em was "I presume you have adequate insurance cover for this? .... 'cos I sure as **** don't "
valued at over £500k each -- then ... IIRC were about 3t each
think this is they .... https://fineiron.co.uk/about_architectural_ironworkers/
just looked on Google maps and their bitch of an entrance seems to have improved a bit
