[QUOTE="Bigwrench, post: 404511, member: 13822"] Yeah I think I am going to give it a shot, will be much less expensive a solution than paying a welder @ $38-$45 a tube. Im going to talk to our body shop supplier this afternoon and see what I can get it for off of him. As a side note after talking to the Body guy that painted my boat they test this stuff using two flat panels glued for 24 hours and then attach each piece to our frame machine and pull them apart. The metal always fails first. Since my build doesn't require doing anything structural I think this may be perfect for me to be able to do at home. I will probably everything cut and prepped and drilled and hold it all together with Cleco fasteners and see how it works out and let everyone know on my build thread how it turns out. [/QUOTE]
