I know I'm a framer but damn, we don't work to the .# of a millimeter hahaha. The round corner on the tub will make it interesting! Anything going around the outside, like a border? Or just the boards and that's it? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/72431-fg-custom-tray-build/page/46/#findComment-1220447 Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isnt gunna be like slapping 100 frames up in a day haha. Anyway, the benders have told me now that they cant bend aluminium because it will just collapse. So now I have to fabricate the corners myself. So I am thinking of a revised design where the frame is radiused but the decking still has squared corners. Looking at it now I thing I prefer the rounded corners on the decking also. Opinions???

Donating Members 8,142 Member For: 14y 3m 27d Gender: Male Location: 2 Fuchsia Court, Narre Warren. 3805 Posted 10/04/12 03:58 AM Author Share Posted 10/04/12 03:58 AM Ive made steel work to the drawing only to find the concrete out by up to 300mm sometimes. Seen wall frames completely in wrong spot. Double studs that are not double studs and meant to land my beam on top of them. Anyway. Stainless is no go as way to heavy. Its easily what I would choose if it was lighter. And the bender said steel with 6mm wall he can do a 200mm inside radius. I want a 50mm inside radius.
