Had an old friend that made me a hang on out of 1/2" sq tubing. Still have it hanging in the barn. I was younger, dumber, lighter and a bit more nimble back then. Used to hang my stands where you had to be part squirrel to get in them, kept others from hunting them

Beat the ends flat to create more welding surfaces and one side that is thicker to drag from. Turn the welder down to low voltage and slower wire speed. Make a puddle, let it cool a second...do it again. Be prepared to fill in a hole if it burns thru. So do not linger that heat in one spot very long or you will not be able to pull off welding on emt.

I kind of agree I'm 260 lb Sometimes it cost a little more money to do it better I think I was paying $9 a20 foot stick for 3/4x3/4 by 1/ 8 angle iron Work hard play hard
