16, 18 or 20 Guage Cold Rolled Steel
Topic starter
good day all,
I mentioned before that I have built a few hacks/sidecars in the past.
This new project I am sticking with steel again, but this time I was thinking 20 Gauge cold rolled sheet steel for the body, reinforced by rolling in a few beads to reduce flex. Also, I will be hemming the edges
thoughts?
Or should I stick with the thicker 18 gauge?
