Anybody want T stakes?

I have a few new stakes I need to make up for myself. I bought a length of 1" square stock for them today. But the place I got it sells it in 20ft lengths.
I use a T stake made from 1" square stock 18"x18". It's the most used stake in my shop. I use it to flare edges, shape the oculars on a klapvisor and as a backing for peening the two piece rivets in hard to reach places. Probably for a bunch of other things too I'm not thinking of.
I used to use it for froming the knuckles on hourglass metacarpals with one end that's ground to a V.
Mild steel. I find it works better in mild. While it does need to be dressed now and then it does reduce splitting on the edges of stainless rolled edges.
1" square 18"x18" although I can do other dimensions but the 1" has to stay the same. You can stick it in your stake bench or vice 3 different ways and grind 3 different ends on it.
Will come welded and deburred. No polishing or shapes ground on the ends.
$50 for one plus shipping. I can weld together other configurations of 1" square if you let me know what you want.
