not worth the hassle or cost of material

for $140 for perfect fit, powdercoated connectors....hard to beat.

keep an eye on the BMR group purchases and you could knock 10-15% off that.

I would like to buy some if I wasnt a poor man.... as far as the cost of material I can get that for free. I do understand what your sayin though.

Pretty easy do to if you have any fab skills and a welder. Just make sure you got structural tubing and not pipe.

I got these fairly cheap considering they are the stronger ones.
