Is it aluminum? It looks great and I am looking at different materials and sizes for my grill. | | | Re: We got another van! | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 32,759 Likes: 175 Old Timer | OP Old Timer Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 32,759 Likes: 175 | Lee, it is 5/8" aluminum tubing i got at Home Depot and Lowes also has it.it only comes in 3 ft peices tho.You may be able to order it longer i think.

I saw them there but I need pieces a little over 6 feet and they said they couldn't order them. I found a place I can get it in 8 foot sections but they didn't seem as smooth or shiny but I guess I can sand, polish or buff them out. | | | Re: We got another van! | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 32,759 Likes: 175 Old Timer | OP Old Timer Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 32,759 Likes: 175 | Let me check and see if i remember there was another place that had them in long lenghts.

Missed seeing you and Lucy at the NATS. Almost made it to Butler this year. Maybe see you at Action, or hopefully at the 41st NATS. | | | Re: We got another van! | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 32,759 Likes: 175 Old Timer | OP Old Timer Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 32,759 Likes: 175 | Thanks Brad.Maybe next year you can make it.Action may be possible.
