I was walking into Kinlochleven on monday, following the route of the West Highland Way.

Walking down from the blackwater hydroelectric power station along the alcan service road, I noticed this piece of steel propping up a barrier.

Its self evident that it has not been sawn, it has signs of having melted, and in all likelihood by an Oxy Acetylene cutting torch.



There were many more that had been cut just like this one.
The cuts resemble the cuts made to wtc steel cut during the cleanup.
 
Hmmmm. Looks more like thermite to me. Were there any paint chips on the ground you could collect?

the tell tale sign that the beams at GZ were cut with oxy-acetylene torches is the pattern

when you cut steel with a torch you dont hold the flame perpendicular to the surface
it wont cut good that way
you cut at 45 degree angles to the face

the 1st time a "truth?"er sent me that pic i instantly recognized that pattern (as i use torches all the time)
its pretty stupid that some of them still use this pic as "evidence" years later

I actually stumbled across a truther artical (don't have the link handy) that reasoned it was more reasonable to believe the beams were cut with "nano-thermite cutter charges" because it doesn't make sense to cut the beams at 45 degree angles lol.

maybe u can explain why these Oxy Acetylene torch cuts dont have slag dripping down the column.

start at about 1:30.

I argued with a Truther about this photo once. I told him that you can tell its not part of a CD because of the angle of the cut. They cut it that way so they can control which way the top part would fall.

The guy said why would they even care cause there was only debris around.

Absurd.

That is a good question. But I would guess that this is because there are visible differences between the columns shown in the picture and in the video. The ones in the video do not seem to have very thick walls, at least when compared to the column in the photo.

I'm just putting this explanation out there, I'm sure someone knows a more concrete explanation for this.
 
That would have certainly won a stundie!! KFC, did you wet your pants laughing at that remark??

Didn't know he was a member here or is there another reason for this thread?

Because depending on the size of the piece your cutting and the skill of the operator, most of the slag is blown clear. Any other questions for this iron worker (me)?

so first off, do u believe this is an oxy-acetylene torch cut? is this a definate? ive heard all different kinds of stuff from debunkers like a thermite torch or a plasma cutter.

from what i remember, this a 4 inch piece of steel?

why is slag running down the front? from what i understand, the slag needs to be pushed out the back in order for it to cut right. the slag is just going to solidify in the cut if its not pushed through the back when it cuts.

how long would it take to cut through 4 inches of steel?

and when u say "most of the slag is blown clear" can u explain please? a hell of alot is dripping down the front compared to the youtube vid of oxy-acetylene torch cuts that have little or no slag?
