It is just about impossible to weld galvanized pipe. You have to grind the galvanizing off of where you intend to weld it. Then you can weld it. When grinding once you see sparks you know that you ha

I would disagree with a couple of caveats, I'd remove the galvanizing with a sanding wheel. One of those constructed from strips of emery cloth or sand paper. Unlike grinding, they only remove the su

I would be careful adding extra braces. Much of the brace strength comes from the angles between the brace and legs. Using lesser angles reduces the strength, requiring still more braces. OTOH. I dou
