making pedals

My legs are shorter for 26 inches python. So I need solution for that.
 Hand disk grinder is cramped.
 to keep flat surface of the both edge, it is cramped like this.
 Then bended.
 Bended,
 Bended.
 At last, I couldn't make it fit to the part of the pedal.
 My solution is cutting.
 The hardness may have problem which is weak. but the thickness is twice of original.
 Done.
Attached to cranks. it doesn't look normal pedals.
I can use thinner iron plate if they have problems of hardness, I can repair by the welding.
I guess that I catch a summer cold. I have pain in right fingers and both knee joints.

I should add the light and flag. however I can't ride it well yet.
