Re: Cost of Solar Panel Arch

try a non traditional fabricator-- i had mine custom built to my specs at a shop that normally makes stainless steel kitchen counter tops-- made out of 2 inch thick wall SS tubing- it currently holds the D400 wind genny, two 160 watt solar panels as well as an assortment of antennas etc. it is strong enough to lift over 800 lbs multiple times without flexing or bending- could have gotten by with a lighter built piece but this will last my lifetime. total cost was around $2500 here in the US. paid the man cash and gave him plenty of time to do the project.
