| Interior cage questions
Ive got a question on the rules for the interior cage, i just made this one after reading them and didn't catch it says brazed, welded, or soldered. I used threaded rod for the middle bar section to connect the 4 top bars, and shoegooed the back r screws into the tube to hold everything together. Would this still count? Or do i need to switch to brass so i can solder it? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk |

When this rule was written, we wanted to get rid of the guys making interior cages out of pieces of wire that were gluing and taping them together. We may have to add "mechanically fastened together" as an acceptable way since that's how some cages are built. We will discuss.

| Re: Interior cage questions Added more bars to make it look more scale. Also re did the front section. Got rid of the button head screws and used threaded incerts for the main structure to hold together. Then jb welded all the joints. The added joints that are shown without jb weld now have it.

I also plan on painting the whole cage after jb weld is dry to look more scale. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk |
