Just realized the irony today at work, while grinding down some steel channel. I am an Ironworker (at least for the summer) in more than one sense of the word. Anybody else do any industrial fabrication?

Ironworking is a wonderful thing ;)

LOL congrats Ilander! Watch out for the vibrations if you pound something LOL! Guess that makes you an Ironworker Ironworker LOL (IWIW). :D

Something like that :D

I get to grind and weld and beat things with a hammer, and cut things with various highly dangerous objects like the ominously named "Plasma-cutter" or an acetylene torch, or a horizontal band saw...

OOOOOhhhhh, all the ways I could crush, break, or impale myself... :D

lol, Ilander the Ironworking Ironworker, congrats [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Well then get back to work, peon! :D
HT - haven't you eaten enough of that yellow crap by now? [img]tongue.gif[/img] You remind me of the D12 song Purple Pills , except you're high on yellow ones :D

"I take a couple of em
I down a couple o' ghosts
But nothin' compares to these tiny shiny yellow dots" :D
Perfect timming Veskez, I am actually in the process of making a new sig......

I used to grind gears for a living, back in my college days. Used to stamp metal parts, too. Spot-welded a couple of times, but that wasn't really my strong suit.

Congrats on the new job! Hope it works out well for the summer.

Welcome to the world of metal working, I run the VBM in my sig. [img]smile.gif[/img]

The irony of being an ironworker ironworker? Amazing! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
