Shred
I like your results and ugly it aint. You've done a marvelous job of it and should be feeling justifiably proud.
We all encounter run away cutters,vise marks and such more often than we'd like to admit, but I've been polishing metal for a long time and learned that a bit of rubbing makes a lot of it go away. If the screw up is beyond polishing, then it's back to new metal and blue words, quietly mumbled so that the grandkids won't get too educated, too early.
Don't let the bling fool you... my mistakes and recoveries are certainly there to be seen. They just hide behind a curtain of visual misdirection..LOL. I just try a bit harder next time and pray the machine tool gremlins are off breeding elsewhere. Anyone know any ancient incantations or recipes for burnt offerings that work for this?
