Hello all...
Late last week I inquired about the slotting of thin-walled aluminum
tubing, asking for
anyone with the necessary machinery to do same.
I got several suggestions, including questions from Dale, K4DG regarding
the type
of tubing, etc.
To make a long story short, today, AC4CA and I drove over to see Dale,
K4DG and take
advantage of his offer to slot my tubing with his
metal-cutting-blade-equipped band saw.
Needless to say, it was like "cutting butter!" Twenty pieces of aluminum
tubing slotted
in about 10 minutes!! ;-)
Much quicker and much more accurate than a hacksaw!!
After the short work... Dale was kind enough to give John and myself the
guided tour
of his very neat "shack" and of course the very impressive tower
installation.
Thanks again Dale...
