[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 304766, member: 7544"] I liked the idea of the 90° corners of 6063, I just didn't like the idea of giving up the strength. At the time, I wasn't even aware that there was a difference in price between the 2 so that didn't affect my decision to go with 6061. Any time I attached 2 pieces together where the inside corner was going to be an issue, I ground the end of the joining piece with my 4" side grinder. It was simple and only added a few seconds of extra time for each joint. Overall added time on the project from grinding the ends was minimal. And now I can relax and enjoy the fishing while I'm out on the lake rather than spend my time worrying that something might break/bend. [/QUOTE]
