Some of the links on this forum allow SMF, at no cost to you, to earn a small commission when you click through and make a purchase. Let me know if you have any questions about this.
Don't know what you're building, but no need to spend the extra money on SS for an ash collector or most any other parts.
Most bends OK, but welding SS can be a disaster. Use a regular stick or wire and you carbonize the weld which induces corrosion
