The thread on rail anvil making got me digging around the old iron pile and there I found two different pieces of old track.
One was 1"x2"x2"-- real cute , used in mining no doubt.
The other was 1.75"X3"x3" and was marked IJJ Steel Co, Joliet Works 1890 V No15 Is this stuff any good for anything? The ranch that it came off of has a big building framed with the heavy stuff. Got to be a few hundred feet of it in that building along with I beam and channel. I was going to weld a cattle guard with it..
