Hey all,
Beginner welder here, hacked together a table yesterday with a craiglist free coffee table and a couple garbage find pipes. It's not pretty, but better than hunching over.
The coffee table top was painted black, and I ground off and sanded the surface to this copper-ish looking under coating. Underneath the coating is steel, you can see a few points where I ground past it in the photo.
Just wondering what the coating is, maybe Cadmium? Copper? Any more details (why it's used, etc) are appreciated too.
thx,
oany
