i think some one would have a hi to mid heat epoxy that would be made to do just what out want but. may be much cheaper to do it over .how many joints and what size is the tube? if not to many welds and not to long just send it to me i will weld it with new tubes used the old ones for patterns.weld it up for you .and be very fair with you like pay for my gas and filler rod and my lunch

for right now, I just have 2 joints, but I'll have 5 or 6 when done ( but I'm going to make 2 pipes and peice them togther w/ a sewer couplar, for ease of installation ). it's all 2.5" manderal bent.

could I tack the pipes in 4-6 places tho, so the pipes could be re used? I kno the 1 pipe I made, is wasted, I can grind on it to see if I can get it apart, and re
tack, but I doubt I'll get it.
