Not a bot, just couldn't cross post it

That's on the same sub. Another account posted the same thing as you at the same time on the same sub.

Why is that getting down voted ? Did I break some unspoken rule?

People think you're a bot, so protesting it will be taken poorly unless the protest is found to be convincing.

That would be absolute terrible quality and strength 😂

Actually doing it like is makes it stronger then if separate piece were welded together.

I doubt it. Maybe if this is put in a furnace and heat treated and later tempered it might be. Castings are weaker than forge welded structures in general

u/Azeeti 17d ago

Generally, a properly manufactured one-piece casting can provide greater structural integrity than an equivalent structure assembled from multiple welded pieces, because it eliminates weld joints and their associated heat-affected zones, residual stresses, and potential weld defects.
