These add massively increased rigidity to the structure. |
Instead of 1 90 deg bend how about 2 45 deg bends.
You can also design in a radius bump bend in which a series of small tangent bends together form a large radius bend.
You guys ever wonder how Team 67 can get away with using the light gage round aluminum tube and why it is so strong?
