    While working on a new repair project I decided that I was going to need to roll a couple strips of 3/8" thick 4 1/2" wide T1 steel Now the grade of the metal I have has a minimum yield of 100,000 PSI and a Brinell hardness of between 235 & 290 RC 26 in its natural state.
    So a pretty good work out for my plate roll I figured. Actually due to there only being 9 inches total width the roll acted like it was no big deal.
    This was one of the reasons why a built it like I did

    These 2 strips would be about equal to a single piece 1/8" of hot rolled mild steel 54 inches wide
