This is all alot to think on.
I think the way I am going to go, is when I buy steel this summer is just build it and then test what affect it has. Then I will either skin it or modify it if need be.
One more oddball question, would a square rectangular or round tube, plus a pool noodle or mayby two = oval tubing?
And if it does would it look so janky it would be better to just pay for the gas haha
