(1/2) > >>

CatWeasle:
Hey man,
Cool product line, and most affordable by a long way.
Do you use 4130 in your frames?
Your welds look a little squirelly on this one->
Indigo - Sinker frame
Cheers, Nick

Lam47:
I asked this.
He uses hi-ten in all frames.
Said they are still really strong though.

Topsey:
Hi-Ten in general is pretty sh*t, I would steer clear.

CatWeasle:
Thanks for the info,
and for moving the topic admin.
There still may be a place for these frames-
as not everyone can afford the 4130 ones.
The strength could be similar prolly, but the high-ten needs
to be heavier.

Topsey:
If it was really thick tubing i could see it lasting a little longer. Anyone that has ever had a hi-ten frame will tell you they arent the best.
