Re: Weight Reduction

When you are designing, if you know that you are going to be overweight, it is easier to drop the wall thickness on stock instead of cutting holes in it. To take out the same amount of weight in holes as going from 1x1 tube with 1/8 inch walls to 1x1 tube with 1/16 inch walls would take lots of holes and time.
