But..... it vaporizes the steel so fast and with such a small surface area there isn't much dwell time to soak into the surrounding material, it's slightly warmer than room temperature.-

Well.... Everyone that thinks it's an exhaust tip is pretty close..... Only, instead of carbon monoxide pouring fourth out of all those 3/8" holes there will be water vapor in the form of a fog...... Can't have museum visitors falling down dead you know.... That would be bad for attendance.....

This is actually the first project I have built with "No Nails". I am using "decking screws", which seems to be the new trend in small to medium construction projects these days. It sure makes things easy. I decided to relocate one of the 2X4's and all I had to do was back the screws out, move the board and screw it back on. Sure beats the old "nail puller" method.
The coolest part was, I told my wife I needed a 20v, cordless, DeWalt hammer drill, with three gears and 15 torque setting for this project and she did not balk once at the $300.00 price tag. This baby is really sweet. :lol:

This thing should have been finished by now, but with the temps lately, I can only work for short periods. Reached a point where we needed to paint before construction continued.
