I have this bug bad, it comes in spurts and well I can't stop it. So when I'm on a roll.... I was looking at this new scraper and didn't find the shape I wanted in it, so I went to fastenal and looked around. And bought 18" of cold rolled A36 Steel for 2.36$ Applied some careful grinding and here is what I came up with:

Yeah she's a beast 18" long x 1" wide x .5" thick. And cuts like a dream !
I need to turn a handle for it. Well after I grind the tang on it. I know A36 is not HSS but it is working just fine.
