Re: Bending Square aluminium tubing

I've never seen a team bend square tubing. What most teams do is one of the following. You could weld it but I'm guessing you don't want to do that right now. Or you could rivet them together using a gusset plate or use bolts if you want to. If you want strength and don't plan on making changes too often, I would suggest using rivets
