Brake rotors are good for that purpose too.

@RoamingGnome Gerry , did you see how I made my for the 446 blower tractor ? Portland cement and chopped up wheel weights for aggregate ? I was just trying to remember your post on this.

A few weeks back I gave my Weber spirit grill a quick cleaning. While scraping out the inside, I bumped the burner rear crossover tube and it literally crumbled. While cleaning off the flavorizer bars one of those developed two holes. These were cheap aftermarket stainless from Amazon. I'm impresse...
