Hey wtr, thanks for the imput and the pic, nice cage btw... My intention for the attex is pretty much build it as tough as i can an run the poo out of it...lol I have no problems with welding, been doing it most of my life and i own a pipe bender, i was just wondering where the best place was to fasten the cage, the frame doesn't look all that tough but i guess its the most solid part of the machine.... again, thanks
