In all seriousness, after all of the offseason CAD projects we've seen from madtown, something this intricately integrated is exactly what we should expect! Looks great guys.

It looks like a lot of the metal is heavily pocketed 1/8" wall tubing. If you had used 1/16" and left it solid, it would actually be lighter and stronger.
