answers please.
Edit : So I probably should have been more specific . Im looking for a big cooking pot , not one of those factory mixing tanks lol. I guess something that is about the size of about 100 Litres
Someone here suggested I speak to a black smith about it an I honestly have no Idea how to even begin contacting blacksmiths in toronto. If you can let me know then please do. I do have a couple things Im willing to pay to have welded , this pot included. But my biggest questions to the blacksmith would be:
'How do I determine the 'quality' of the steel thst is being used? What the hell is 'steel quality' anyways? can it be quantified or is it qualitatively determined or both?
I am looking for steel that could almost last me a lifetime so any ideas as to what I should evem begin to research about when it comes to steel like this? ?
' Im looking for steel that is resistant to water and hot water for the pot that I need welded and then I am looking for steel that is resitant to sweat and external forces (both horizontal and vertical) for this pull up station I need welded where can I research what types of steels I need for these two types of products?
In addition to the good suggestions here check commercial restaurant kitchen equipment suppliers. There are plenty of things to contact a blacksmith about but a pot isn't one of them in my mind.... maybe if you want a hand hammered cauldron but.... it is going to be vastly cheaper to find something commercially available ESPECIALLY with stainless steel... I don't know any blacksmiths working with stainless steel. I dunno how I got on about stainless steel... magnetism is an easy way to roughly check grades of stainless... what you want depends on your requirements
