the 13th round

anybody ever use process pipe for exhaust?

im asking because i believe its cast and i dont know if it will crack bad. i ask because i work at a plant that throws away stainless piping by the ton. its schedule 5, 304 stainless.

opinions?

I know, someone should untie her and get her some clothes. She's probably cold.

might be alittle on the heavy side, but if its free id rock it. hell use it for practice if you weld. can't be as bad as someone on here with the 3" exhaust out of electrical conduit. i <3 welding galvanized

lol also for what scrap metal is going for if you could enough of it you might make some moeny

yeah, that used to be what we would do, then people started getting fired for it.

the piping is definitely good enough to use for exhaust, but damn heavy

That would be about 15ga metal. I'd be really interested in a foot or 3 of it though if you have 3" (3.5" OD). I'm going to be making all-stainless cable-driven e-cutouts, and the Sch10 pipe I can buy is like $35-45 to ship a foot to my door.

the 13th round

yeah, no 3.5 inch.

they dont run odd sizes in the plant.

i think that it would be heavy but im just going to use a 90 and like a foot and a half of straight.

also, should i get a mild steel v-band setup or all stainless? cuz stainless ones are mad expensive.

anybody got a 3" assembly lying around they want to sell for cheap





o yeah, and talking about recycling, i snuck out 92lbs of stainless bolts the other day.

slowly adding to my collection of scrap stainless.
