My process "experiments"
1. Bending
•Square tubing
Cut slits to bend
•Round tubing
Easier to bend in general
•Sheet metal
Easiest to bend
2. Welding (Mig)
• Square
Easiest to weld since it's rectalinear
•Round
May have to cut edge in C shape to attach pieces
•Sheet
If the gauge is too thin then it may melt through the sheet of metal.
3. Rolling
•Sheet
•Put bends in metal
Circular, elliptical, rectangles and unusual shapes.
•Grooves to interlock two pieces
V-grooves
Looks good try get enough of you materials so you can get going on monday. Make sure you can accomplish the rolling in your third experiment.
