The secret CAM system does not necessarily lie in the blocks or the actual cam, it lies within the method in which the CAMS are turned... Think about it

Be wary, welding 1/8" wall to 1/16" wall can be entertaining. Are you planning on having a welder do it for you, or will a student be doing the welding? 1/16" wall is veeeeery thin, and can splatter and deform under the hands of a less experienced welder.
