tack <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: :Aluminum (especially non-tempered) is a bitch to deal with at high :temperatures. It's problematic to weld to and if impacted above 1800 :degrees will crumble like a stale cookie. You're better off going to the :hardware store and buying a section of steel pipe for this project. It :won't be as cool as the bat, but it will be more reliable.
Which is why, at Organic, the CEs had something we called "the patch". It was a giant steel wrench, maybe three feet long, that we found left on the roof. It was a good thing to have in hand while discussing last-minute specification changes with project management. And, of course, if someone screwed something up, you could always just go over and apply The Patch. Works wonders. -- DVS Grumpy, possibly armed, and drunk more often than not. _______________________________________________ Bits mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sugoi.org/mailman/listinfo/bits
