80/20 frame Material Questions
Recently my team has been trying to design some frames, so that when build season comes around we will not be completely lost. I have been doing alot of research online and on ChiefDelphi, and I have come up with alot of different materials that we have been designing with. Some of these include square tube (both welded and bolted), bosch frame, plates and 80/20. Through these searches there have been some disagreements about advantages/disadvantages of each. I am now trying to get a detailed comparison list together, however I would like some input and personal experiences from other teams.
Most of my questions are specifically tailored towards 80/20...
What is weight comparison between 80/20 and similar size square tube?
What is thoughts on the different 80/20 methods of connecting pieces together (last year we used the old school 90degrees and they were heavy...I have heard good things about new anchor mounts)?
How has 80/20 worked for you in the past?
Whats thoughts on weld vs. bolt?
