What happens here

Miguel skillfully utilizes a plasma cutter to make precise cuts on various steel components for the trailer frame, producing a shower of bright sparks. Marvin then diligently follows, using an angle grinder to meticulously deburr and smooth the rough edges of the freshly cut metal, ensuring clean and prepared surfaces that are ready for welding. This step ensures all pieces fit together accurately for a strong build.

Goal: Prepare all steel components with accurate cuts and smooth, burr-free edges.

Tools and materials
