I would be worried it would swell and warp with the seasons.

I was picking up some more offcuts from the local fabricator I found and while waiting for them asked what sort of work they did. Turns out they make escape craft for ships. So the aluminium alloy they use (5052) is noted for its higher resistance to galvanic corrosion when being bolted to things like stainless steel.
Now isn’t that handy…

Nah. That machine is ready for a rebuild LOL. But it will have to get put off just a little bit, got 2 more to build and ship in front of it
Terve,
Thanks! I will have a look at these.
Ps. Kiitos, pitää tutkia. Sain tuon LR3 valmiiksi tämän vuoden alkupuolioskolla. Valitettavasti joutui melkein heti varastoon sillä tilaa/aikaa ei riittänyt. Nyt on aikaa perehtyä kunnollisesti itse koneen käyttöön että kesällä voisin jonkun projektin aloittaa.
