Talking to my shop teacher yesterday about shooting and steel targets and such when he drops a bomb on me:
Teach: You do know we have some armor scraps in one of the bins outside, don't you?
Me: Excuse me? What did you just say?
Turns out a local company had a military contract and the Community College managed to get some of the 3/8 armor scraps.
He let me have enough so I could torch cut four 4" and two 6". Forgive my crappy torch work lol, I gotta finish up the edge grind and shape em up, but not gonna be bad for free targets lol.
Tomorrow he's gonna teach me how to load images in the computer and use the automatic plasma cutter to cut a 10 1/2" x 18 1/2" silhoutte (AR500s dimensions for a 60% silhouette)
