I just got back from the surplus steel place. They did not have as much stock as they usually have and mild steel was up to .45 a pound. It was .31 last time I was there.
Still a good deal. I bought 206 pounds of it just under 100 with tax.
I needed some ½ plate they had one piece left. I had the cut it for me and while I was getting other steel someone else tried to get my ½ piece.
They stopped them and saved it for me.

I hope to turn the steel into a quick attach for my backhoe bucket.
The quick attach will be loosely based off this one.

And root ripper for my backhoe.
The root ripper will be loosely based off this one.

A 16” bucket for my backhoe
The Bucket will be loosely based off the OEM bucket.
