Please have students use all material as efficiently as possible to reduce waste and cost of new materials.
Below is a drawing showing how tee joints should be welded and re-used after being broken in the press.
If a Tee joint cannot be broken in the press, have the student cut the verticalplate off just above the weld with OFC.
Doing it in this manner uses all 4 sides of the upright plate and 1 full side of the horizontal plate. The horizontal plate should be used on both sides with this procedure so the edges of it can be used to make 4 more welds using it as the vertical plate.
Once all edges are used on the vertical plate,please put into a separate bin to be used for padding.
