Anyone machined forklift tine material?
#1
I had a bit of a clean-up after my carport rebuild this afternoon and took a load to the local scrap metal place. I was poking around looking for some suitable material to make some QCTP holders. Couldn't find any suitable flat bar but I noticed they had several forklift tines in the pile- they're scrapped when they wear down below a certain thickness at the heel. The vertical portion of one of these tines would be a good size to get a few holders out of, I'm wondering if the stuff would be a problem to machine? Anyone know what the material is that is usually used? All I know is that they're strong as all get-out.
