I was meaning to pick up out there someday.

TR, the steel is called "shear steel" and is actually a form of laminated tool steel which is why it hasn't been taken to the dump yet. Some of that saw plate came from 100 inch diameter circle saws used in the big mills. Even after being torch cut in quarters, I can barely wrestle one piece into the back of the pickup to bring it home.
