Mike I can't find my strength of materials engineering book but have the
information on the frame it is 950-1023-1080 steel. It can be welded with
1023-950 material electrode type E6013 or E7018. The rods have a tensile
strength of 60,000# for the E6013 and 70,000# for the E7018 rods. The frame
is mild steel.
