How to make a large hole in a steel plate
I need to make a two inch hole near the center of a four foot square
3/16" steel plate. It doesn't need to be perfect, could be slightly irregular. Would a cutting torch be OK, or would the heat permanently distort the plate? What other methods would work? A plasma cutter sounds good to me, but I don't have one. I guess I could take it somewhere and pay to have it done. |
