part was cut out of the sheet in the wrong orientation to the grain direction.

So you are saying the metal has a grain direction? They are working with steel not wood.

Yes wood has a grain because a tree grow up and in nature the tree can stand up to the wind. When they pour steel its in a liquid form. Didn't know that a liquid had a grain like wood? So you are saying when they roll out the steel it gets a grain in it? I guess its something I never heard of and you looking at the picture can see this? Is there anybody else out there that can see the grain in the steel because I sure can't. So you are also saying Hustler's engineers don't know what they are doing so the whole machine is made like this? Sorry I just don't buy into it.
Yes all metal are crystaline and have grain structures and getting the grain to go the way you want it to to maximise the strangth so you can reduce section thickness is part of the art & science of good engineering design. ( you are very good with words)
