Thanks Jere!! I hear you about the flex, just try not to push it. It's that thin wall tube! Saw some tubing a while back on Online Metals that I think will work with heavier wall, fairly cheep and could raise it up a bit too, but shipping will probably cost more than the tube. Still looking for old Iron myself. My dad had an old radial head that was built like a truck but got ruined in a fire he had. Love to see yours and what you come up with for it.
