You mean your welder doesn't ask you to make a more complicated frame every year so he has a bigger challenge???

In all seriousness, after all of the offseason CAD projects we've seen from madtown, something this intricately integrated is exactly what we should expect! Looks great guys.

It looks like a lot of the metal is heavily pocketed 1/8" wall tubing. If you had used 1/16" and left it solid, it would actually be lighter and stronger.

Adam, the Bottom and the mast is Heavily pocketed 1/8 inch Aluminum. Everything else is 1/16 and it is pocketed also. So yeah, we took the most weight off possible. Also I will have a CAD drawing uploaded to delphi after it renders(No Colors Yet).
