Bob demonstrated with ease, though not without some bruises and burns, how to flatten the steel pipe, which had a 1/4 inch wall (not an easy task for mere mortals like you and me).
Locked and loaded, part deux: beefy steel.

Over the Weekend
After two trips to the Resource Center on 135th street, we ended up with about 150 pounds of steel for just 10 cents a pound. We're using steel pipe that David suspects was used for farm equipment as our cross-braces, and some really beefy punched steel to build the structures that will support all of the internals (eg the turbine itself, the alternator(s) and the flywheel).
