I’ve been working on a side fence structure from pieces of steel that I gather from the recycling center. It’s galvanized steel, so it’s a bit nasty to weld; although I’ve taken some precautions– (p100 welding mask and a fan, I’m open air). I’ve been able to construct the core of the fence with Unistrut and 2” square tube. The idea was to bolt the fence to the concrete forms I poured with a simple adapter, opposed to welding it in place.
This is the progress so far.
