Re: Weight Reduction Help.

also think about rebuilding certain parts with a lighter material.. consider 1/16 inch wall aluminum box or angle instead of 1/8 inch. If you have alot of PVC, consider small walls, or switching to some aluminum of smaller size that can get you the same strength but less weight.
