Thanks for the input Eddy!
Well it's been a long time since my last post and since then there have been some large changes... Now, I am fully awaiting the groans and face palms when I say this....
I have decided to return to using aluminium profile for the frame. The reasons being:
1) My welding skills are not quite there. They aren't bad but I envisage a lot of trouble trying to get things square and aligned correctly.
2) I now have free access to a water jet which I plan to cut beefy steel brackets from to connect the profile together with.
3) I have re-evaluated what I will mainly be realistically cutting and steel may be OTT!
Anyway, enough excuses. Here's the latest design. I would really like to get the ball rolling with the custom aluminium parts. Am I best posting on the job request page and going from there?
Dave
