I have been working on upgrading my system for a long time now and thought it was time to move to a single tier automated system.
I did not want to spend a fortune on the system I really wanted to stay under $500.00 (It is going to be close!)
When I started this project I knew that I wanted a welded stand not a bolted together stand. I had already built a wood stand and was ready for something new.
Not being a welder or owning a welder made me think this was going to be impossible or very expensive.
Well a few youtube videos later and a couple of trips to goodwill and what do you know I built my own welder. (But that's a story for another forum)
With a welder of sort in hand and zero experience I started collecting bed frames. Yeah I checked on stainless tube pricing first but that was not in the budget!
The list below is currently still under $500.00 and my hope is to keep it under, but I am at road block and need some help. I have everything needed except for the gas solenoids. I had no idea they would cost so much any ideas?
