Lanelle Smith was our hostess at Chaparral Steel

This is a tour that everyone should take. Make note they have 3 bar rooms that mold the steel into shapes. The Melt shop melts steel for all of them. If you would like to see them make note to Lanelle that you wish to do so. We just got the one bar shop and melt shop. They make 200 different kinds of steel there.
