[TheForge] Old Boilers...

[Andy Gladish]

I got some boiler plate from the shipyard that was the nicest mild steel- 
and I don't mean A-36, I mean very low Carbon, it forged like Pure Iron. 
Made a bunch of spoons and forks from that, I'd like to have a few hundred 
pounds of it!
Has that PI spark, too.
Though, like you say, it's stubborn to cut- why would that be, anyone know? 
I've never tried to cut Pure Iron with a torch...

--: [TheForge] Old Boilers...


Figured I'd throw this one out for ideas.



Does anyone here know about old early 20th cent. Boilers?



My son has a friend down in Milwaukee who is getting ready to tear out an
old boiler based heating system from a property he is renovating.



Any Ideas on the probability of the boiler and radiators being cast vs
wrought-iron?



Thanks in advance!
