Steel

I started putting in the steel. Lots of it as you can see...

I use reels of steel tying wire and a pair of nips. I'd cut a small piece of wire off the reel which I keep in a pocket. I unwind it from the inside so it does not get tangled. I bend it around the rebar and then twist it with the nips.



This is from the cut off grinder. It is the slag that accumulated at the grinder's defector plate. It is quite solid despite how fragile it looks.
