Billing overhead if there is any. We made money on the hot hands part of
that but it seemed like we spent half of it inputting and collecting it.

That's what I'm doing, checking plumbers and local electrical shops. my guy
with the mounts screwed me and didnt show, so I need pipe. The spec sheet
on the vhlp3 says minimum OD 3.5.
I buy water pipe from plumbers because that's what sitepro cuts and sells
us for much more money than the plumbers
I have used 3 inch (trade size) IMC electrical conduit. It is lighter than 3”
rigid and probably stiffer because of work hardening of the steel in the
forming process.
You could also use 3 inch rigid conduit. You probably don’t want to get
aluminum though, it’s got more flex.
If you’re
I can get some 3 inch emt probably, not sure the OD on that, I need 3.5 for
some 3' antennas. Would that be rigid enough for that torque? And what is
it made of that it doesnt rust, its steel

It will rust. Not quickly unless you are by the coast. Problem is, it has a
coating that is difficult to remove. Sandblasting is what I use if I have to
use it. You cannot galvanize it unless you remove the coating down to bare
metal. Not sure if it will take paint. Probably if you degreas

We normally get galvanized water pipe for masts, but the local shop doesnt
have any 3 inch in stock..they have 3 inch black pipe though. Has anybody
used black pipe as a mast before? I'm concerned it will rust out relatively
quickly
