I was looking at that, too until I saw that the "welding machine" costs $417. Do you suppose that the hollow tubing (which uses 21-cent connectors) would work as well? IAN an industrial engineer... |
Yeah, that'd scared me away initially as well, but as it turns out, the 'welding kit' includes many things beyond what is required to heat up and join the tubing. A simple heat gun should be sufficient and the tubing can be joined in a piece of angle to maintain alignment.
