The scrap yard on skillin in Riverside also will sell you some metal. They are typically good people there and you should be able to get some practice material for slightly above what they paid for it (scrap steel price)

@Niagara D I'm not seeing anything on Google, including Skillin St. Do you know the name? Is it the place you can see from the Sqajacquada?

I think I am getting better at this.

I wish I had taken a before picture. That is the giant clump of rust and weld I cut out, placed on top of the piece I welded back in it's place. I had lined the inside with 16 ga steel previously.

After welding and grinding flush. Still a couple of low spots I'll fill with JB Weld and sand down before priming and painting.

Scrap yards around this area wont sell anything anymore. They say because of liability. Everybody`s sue crazy.
