Default A lesson in Metallurgy.

Well I was working on a project this weekend, and needed parts off a rig that was partially burried in a snow bank. No problem, I just hooked up my 4wd truck and yanked on it. After breaking a tow strap, I decided to use a chain. After a couple tries the chain slipped off, or so I thought. This is what happens when you pull on a solid piece of 3/4" steel at 60 degrees below zero. Needless to say the project is still burried, Oh well, it will thaw out about May.
