rolled mild steel

Re:rolled mild steel
how do you guys make flanges?
I was trying to plasma cut them, but it was too hot and the metal was warping...
I tried cold cutting, with a combo of chop saws, cut off tools, and my drill press, but it looked sloppy and was taking forever...
any tips appreciated

Re:rolled mild steel
I had mine cut with an acetalyne torch... then used a rotary tool with a file attachement (try carbide) to smooth it out... then used an angle grinder to chanfer it out.... and finally used a drill to make the bolt holes... it looked like ----.. but it worked... took forever though... might just want a machine shop to do it if it wont cost too much
