So you've already decided that you won't be using wood during build season? Nothing wrong with that, of course... aluminum tubing works great, too and if that is where your skill sets and tool availability leads you then go for it.

But don't assume that you have to build a chassis from Aluminum if you have other options available to you. Wood and composites have been very good to our team.
