exterior roll cage???
« on: Feb 02, 2005, 09:08:27 PM »
if i wanted to build a exterior roll cage would it be better to make long pieces with lots of bends or shorter pieces that are welded up everywhere?

Long pieces, triangulated for strength.

Long pieces will be stronger, less weld point to stress. and will probably look better since you wont have as many weld lines.
