To hot for mud :-)

I suspect the rods were marked - hole smaller than this - and flange .....

The company doesn't want to pound out another or 50% for mistakes.

Wrought iron not pouring. And the base must be a beast into the ground!
Not much bounce in the ground near by or anywhere.

I think "we" went into pouring the form and then machine out the final.

Clearly very smart people, forging with just forklifts and a huge drop hammer

I saw that yesterday, almost shared the link as well. It's a real ugly
operation until they machine the thing down. You can see calipers at one
point and the rest of the measuring seems to be with some sort of rod with
markings of some sort. My question is how consistent are those flanges
from the start of the shift to the end, or on a rainy day when they're
slipping in mud or anything like that.
