Hi guys are new to the forum and I'm starting to say hi to you all and thank you already in advance ..and I hope I'm in the right section because there are so many and I hope I didn't have the wrong to post my argument here:redface:
I do a premise saying that I work in a mechanical workshop, me the cable to weld and repair, but at the theoretical level I am a complete ignorant and hope not to offend you if I may use some technical term not suitable:frown: and I hope you can help me
to better understand my situation:
in an amateur way I build with sheet of sculptures "modern art" .
Now I want to reproduce a sculpture already existing but not of my realization,
What I've noticed is that the sheet I use compared to the sheet that has the original sculpture,
in practice mine is a little easier to deform in tapping it with the hammer, while the sheet of the original sculpture while being of the same identical thickness and a little more difficult to tame it with the hammer!
What I'm sure is that by taking a magnet, it sticks to both my sheet and the original sculpture sheet!...anywhere in theory should be iron both? I am aware of a material "steel corten" with which they usually build sculptures in the squares of the countries and cities, but in theory if this sculpture to be copied was in corten steel should not attack a magnet
?
I would have a question for you to see your definitely more experience and preparation of mine!
- concerning the category of iron (not steel)
Are there different types of iron? Harder? softer? etc.
It seems to me that there's even some kind of iron called sweet iron, which in theory seems to me that it's very low in carbon,
What are the differences?
I am looking for a shop or supplier that has "non-galvanized" iron plates with various characteristics (always if there are various technical characteristics of iron)
In practice the iron sheet I look for should be "if the term is suitable" to be harder!
thanks to all and excuse of entertainment:redface:
but I also participate in competitions both of free style and reproduction, and the judges especially in the category "reproduction" look at everything and are great puzzles
