Hello

I would like a mechanically welded frame but in tube laser cutting like the video.

I found a post on the forum that is very complicated. Is there another way to do it more simply?

Hello, ac cobra 427

I'm still in 2015, so I can't open the file.

I quickly made a summary of how I would do for laser-cut tubes that are foldable via the sheet metal function.
