I grabbed a piece of scap to make a part today. It looks like
stainless, is
heavy like steel, and machines easy like 1144. What the heck is this
mystery metal?


It's "scrap metal", silly goose.

Well it worked. Whatever it is. I was all prepared for screaming,
skating and chattering. None of that happened.


Sounds like probably 303...machines real nice but it doesn't weld worth a
****.

And one of my medium term projects will be welding some stainless. I want
to make a hinged hood/lid for my big BBQ grill. I suspect I'll have to let
the local metal bender take advantage of me for a sheet of that though.
