I have found a place to get my steel for the bowling ball mortar, $113.00 per foot, Its DOM 1026 or 520, 9 1/2 OD, ID is 8 3/4
3/8 walls per side. , This gives a clearness of 3/32s per side if the ball stays in the center of the bore, The balls are 8.563 unless someone tells me different,
My question are,1. is this to much or not enought side clearness. I dont want to have to patch balls.
2. Is the steel in range to be save after welded.
THis is going to be heavy for wt. 37 lbs. per foot,3. Whats the shortis I can go for lenght.
Thanks for the help. Joe
