tl;dr - where's Friday hiding?!

Years ago when I was working for Fruehauf. We got a shipment of stainless steel 10 ga. sheet from China. The sheet was to get tig welded on both sides. I'm welding the first pieces of sheet coming off the shipment. Weld the first side. Start to pick up the piece with a crane to flip over and weld the other side. The sheets start to delaminate at the weld.
QC starts to check random pieces of the order. They all failed inspection. That just about bankrupt Fruehauf for failing to meet schedule.
Never seen anything like that.
