A few from the week. The first ones were tough. The main tubes were 0.6 mm (0.024") wall. A little nerve racking!

The rest were a little more chill. Typical 0.7 - 0.8 mm wall.

Beautiful work as usual Zank!
0.6mm is gettin pretty thin. How does it go for strength, is there a weight limit for the rider?

Wall thikness dosent efect on the strenght of the pipe, only material and outside diameter. You can apply the same force in pipe or axle... until there is a litle dent in the pipe.
i have made controllarms for race cars with 0.8mm wall thikness pipe, material 4130. Worked great. Cant take any dents, but is same for the stiffness than hevier wall pipe.

Well you're wrong about that. You're just operating at a lower factor of safety. If you did the strength calculations you would know this to be true.

Thats true that the longevity of the part goes down with thin wall, but dosent effect the torsional stiffness much. Not problem @ racing (cars.. bikes..)

Yeah! We got our ASME "R" stamp qual yesterday. This li'l root pass was enough to send the fire marshal and board inspectors over the edge. I then went to lunch with them and the bosses and stuffed myself full. Great bunch of folk.
It'll be 3-4 weeks before we have our certificate and stamp, but code work can proceed.

Thanks, guys! I have one procedure and test left... One vessel in the queue is aluminum, so I have to qualify separately, and qualify a separate procedure.
