iron fragm ents and begin to w ork it,eventually form ing itinto a single piece ofm etal.
s you m ight im agine, this m ethod of m ining for iron w as tim eand labor-intensive. A fine
plem ent such as a sw ord took hundreds of hours to create. The biblical proverb about
eating sw ords into plow shares reflects this truth:w hen iron is precious,you m ustrecycle even
ursw ord w hen you dontneed itany m ore.
n w as rare and valuable enough to recycle through m ostofhistory,and steelhas been even
ore valuable yet.Pure iron (correctly called w rought iron the term has only lately com e to
ean railings and gates)is a com paratively soft and m alleable substance com pared to steel.
lacksm iths on severalcontinents developed w elding techniques to m erge iron and steelfor
axim um benefit w ellbefore the com m on era.In order to m ake an axe or a sw ord,the sm ith
ould take a sm allquantity of precious steeland m ake the cutting edge ofthe tool,and then
ake the body of the toolout of plain iron.Then the hard steel edge w ould be joined to the
ody through a process know n as forge w elding. This process (in various form s) w as
parately developed in Scandinavia,the M iddle East,India,China,and Japan.Products like
am ascus steeland the legendary Japanese sam uraisw ords are results offorge w elding.
he process offorge w elding is relatively straightforw ard.The pieces to be w elded are heated
a forge using charcoal or coal.W hen they are w hite-hot and on the verge of m elting,the
ith dusts the parts w ith a flux m aterial (charcoal ash or borax,typically)and ham m ers the
arts together.The surfaces m elt a little bit and w eld the separate pieces into one.Before the
vent of oxygen- acetylene and electric arc w elding in the early 20th century,this is how all
elding w as accom plished.
hese processes used by sm iths back to the beginning of recorded history still inform the
ractice of m etalw orking today. W ith all of the exotic alloys available to the m odern

W elding is justthe process ofm elting the steelto a w hite-hotliquid form and allow ing it
to coolin a single piece.
n and its alloys have a crystalline structure. You cant see this structure except under a
icroscope,but its there.You can get a hint of it by looking at the end of a broken steeltool.
hen you heat up a piece of steel,that crystalline grain begins to m elt and you can form the
aterial easily. At a certain point, the crystals m elt and becom e a thick liquid. W hen they
lidify again,new crystals form .Som e characteristics of steel result from the com position of

aterials are collectively called alloys. An alloy is sim ply a m ixture of m etallic and other
lem ents.The nature and interaction of the various elem ents in the m ixture gives the alloy its
ecific attributes and characteristics.For exam ple,the presence of a sm allam ount of carbon
iron m akes the m aterial harder than pure iron,and w e call the alloy steel.The presence of
rom ium in addition to carbon in iron m akes the m aterialm ore resistantto rust and corrosion,
d w e callthe alloy stainless steel.There are hundreds ofalloys in use,butrelatively few are
m m on in autom otive w ork.
he techniques used to w ork the alloys com m only found in autom otive applications are
riations on the them es ofpouring m olten m etals into shapes,beating orpressing hotorcold
etal into shape,cutting and grinding to size,and m elting pieces of m etal together to join
ultiple pieces together.Respectively,these four fundam entaltechniques are called casting,
rging,m achining,and w elding.

he follow ing m etals are frequently used in autom otive construction and in autom otive
rojects.These m etals are com m only available in a variety of form s such as round tube,box

he Am erican Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and the Society of Autom otive Engineers (SAE

ut w hat you need to know for autom otive projects is that carbon steel m eans that the alloy

istons advertised as hypereutectic have been m ade w ith a high-silicon alum inum alloy and a
ecialcasting process.Som e ofthe com m on alloys used in autom otive w ork are show n in the
ble below .
ery m etalw orking technique is a variation on one of the follow ing processes.If the m etalis
tenough to flow into a m old,its casting.If the m etalis being beaten or pressed into shape,
s forging,w hich can be done w ith hotorcold m etal.Ifpartofthe m etalis being heated to the
elting point to join otherw ise solid pieces together, its w elding. And if youre cutting or
rinding m etalinto shape,its m achining.
asting
asting is not typically a process that an am ateur or even a professional w elding and
etalw orking shop can perform . The trem endous energies and specialized skills and
quipm ent required to run an industrialfoundry m ean that m aking your ow n cast-iron or steel
arts is im practical.H ow ever,sm all-scale sandcasting of alum inum and other m etals can be
erform ed, and com bined w ith m achining can produce high-quality custom parts for
nstressed applications such as trim pieces,shiftknobs,and supportbraces.
otForging
ot forging takes in a num ber of related techniques.The com m on factor is that the m etal is
ated to redhotorgreatertem peratures,w hich renders itm alleable.The m etalis then beaten
rpressed into shape and hardens as itcools.

aditional or ham m er forging is done by hand, som etim es using a pow er ham m er in a
ell-equipped shop, but the defining characteristic is that som eone holds the m etal and
apes it.This technique is often used in com bination w ith w elding to fit flat or bar steel into
lace.Forexam ple,this technique is used w hen fitting a m ounting plate fora rollcage onto an
neven surface.The fabricator w elds one edge into position,then heats the w hole plate and
eats it into shape against the backing structure before w elding the rem aining edges into
lace.
rop forging involves taking a blank piece ofheated m etaland placing itin a pre-form ed setof
ies,and then striking the dies together to shape the piece.Excess m etalis then trim m ed off
d the piece is finished w ith m achining.This technique produces a strongerpartthan casting,
itis often used to create suspension com ponents and otherstressed parts.
ot stam ping or pressing is closely related to drop forging, except that it typically uses
eetm etal instead of billet steel, and the stam ping/pressing process is m ore precise and
entle to the m aterialthan drop-forging.But the m etalis stillheated to m ake it soft and then
am ped into shape.As the m etalcools,it hardens into its new shape.This m ethod is used to
ake everything from uni-body chassis to hoods, door skins, and any other stam ped
eetm etalparton an autom obile.Both sheetsteeland alum inum m ay be hot-stam ped.
you apply enough pressure, you can bend, stam p, or beat steel at room tem perature.
rform ing the shaping w hile cold has a different effect on the internalstructure of the m etal
an hot-forging, so this technique is not generally used on critical stressed parts such as
ngine or suspension com ponents.But it is com m only used on m any autom otive fabrication
rojects,and m any ofthe projects covered in this book use som e form ofcold-form ing.

old-form ing steelaffects the crystalline structure ofthe m etal itliterally breaks crystals and
ers at the bend.This is w hy you can tear steel if you bend it back and forth several tim es.
his is called m etal fatigue and if you look at the ragged ends of a torn piece of m etal,you
n see w here the tiny crystalline fibers have stretched and broken.O bviously,you w ant to
oid fatiguing the m etal in any critical stressed part on your project car,but you have som e
ew ay before a bentpiece ofm etalbecom es too fatigued to serve yourpurposes.
old-form ing techniques include bending tube steel, brake-bending and bead-rolling
eetm etal,ham m er- form ing steelplate,and bending steelbars.In general,alum inum is not
s bendy as iron-based alloys and fatigues sooner. O ther m aterials have different
aracteristics.Copperis very m alleable,butits alloy brass is not.
elding
elding refers to any technique w hereby tw o or m ore pieces of m etalare joined together by
elting the edges into each other.W elding is also used to repair cracks in a single piece of
etal.There are several varieties of w elding,characterized generally by the equipm ent used
perform the w eld.But w hether you use oxyacetylene gas,an electric stick w elder,or som e
rm of w ire-feed, M IG , or TIG w elder, youre using the m achine to create localized heat
ffi cient to m elt the m etal being w elded,and usually introducing som e new m etal into the
olten area as filler.
he exception to all this is forge w elding, w hich is an advanced blacksm iths skill. In forge
elding, the entire body of m etal to be joined is heated to near-m olten tem peratures and
ined by pressing the pieces togetherw ith ham m erblow s.
achining M achining m etal is fundam entally different from other m etalw orking techniques.
asting,w elding,and hot forging allinvolve heating m etaluntilit is m olten or at least ductile
d then shaping or joining the m etal w hile it is hot.Cold w orking m etal involves beating or
