Message: [QUOTE="TooMuch03, post: 545942, member: 5993"] I am looking at building my own up-pipes, intermediate pipes and CAC pipes this winter. I have been looking around and doing some research on where to get mandrel bent components. I can weld, but I do not have a big fancy shop or the latest welding equipment, just a simple MIG welder. My question is for those who have built there own up-pipes, what material did you use (t304, t409 like stock up-pipes, or mild steel like stock CAC pipes) and where did you get it from? I am looking for the best value. I don't want to spend thousands more than I need to on plumbing but I don't want to buy material that will fall apart in a year or two. Since, I am just a backyard fabricator, I think mild steel would be easiest for me to weld and work with, but how would it hold up in this application? Just looking for some input from guys who have done this before, and what has worked, and what hasn't. Thanks [/QUOTE]
