But first a demonstration of a not so hypothetical scenario... see I'm getting better at getting miter lengths exactly right now that I figured out what I was doing wrong, but it's humid out, I'm sweating like a pig, and sometimes I mess up. So first, keep in mind the split collar with the wrench flats and the angle finder - that stays on the tube until the fitup is as good as it's going to get. So I can always put it back into the notcher and preserve angles. So slide it all the way to the holesaw like so: Out of curiosity and maybe you have said already. But what are welding the tubing with? That looks like a huge amount of tig welding and I’m not sure that would even be needed. I think a lot of the race shops tig weld chassis because they have the time and the money.

MIG would be totally fine, but hell, if I was doing this as anything other than a labor of love, there's a lot of things I'd do differently. It’s definitely a great practice session. What are using as far as cup size? Are you using a gas lens or just a regular gas jet setup?
