Hi All,

Has anyone tried an ornamental iron shop for wrought-iron?  This is close to
pure iron with silica in the form of slag stringers.  Cast iron on the other
hand will have a high carbon content with the carbon forming small flakes
distributed throughout and causing the gray coloration.  I have a table
showing various cast irons to cantain 1.75 to 4.0 % carbon and wrought iron
as .01 to .08 % carbon.

While I'm on, I have moved and am now operating my long period horizontal in
Mitchell, SD.  It's awfully quiet in comparison to Las Vegas.  Seismically
and citily.

Randy
