This, in my experience, has been fine for everything but a drive train. Getting 4 rails to line up squarely (< 1/32" deviation in the cross-diagonal measurements) using only gussets takes a LONG time. Well, maybe there's a better way than how we used to do it. I'm all ears for that, but it has to be square.

Good point on the cut-to-length though. It's a given for my team and often overlooked in discussions.
