They are washers that hold vending machines to pallets when they are shipped. I have enough to build about 40 more of those dino/dragon things, but I need to start working on the Vette!

Nice?

It is what the welder was bought for but there is not much left on it worth welding.

This was just to learn how to weld... but I got a little carried away practicing spot welds.
