Amazing what you can do with a piece of 20 ga., a shot bag, plastic mallet, couple pieces of round tubing for dies, and a couple body hammers!!!!!! Used to be a sheetmetal shop in town, they were a great source for cutoffs and weird shaped pieces....too bad they went belly up! Probably cuz they threw away too much stuff!!!!
Have a buddy who runs a fab shop and does the same thing. Throws most of the useable stuff in the trash. I built 90% of the brackets, gussets, etc. for the T by scrounging through his trash.
