Pretty darn neat. I wish I had a press to try this. Wondering if you flattened a pipe down enough to fit a flat bar inside it then pounded that into center pulled the flat bar out and dumped 1095 you'd have a dark center. Or even a round pipe and round bar combo. Any who great watching these series of your process.
