    So my next question is, what type of shafts are we talking here on 
average? Keyed solid pipe? Tube? Case hardened?

    I'm sorry if my questions are numerous and broad, I want to limit 
the number of 200.00 errors I make and I'm somewhat detail oriented. I 
just put an order in for 20' of 1" square steel tubing so things are 
actually making progress for the first time in a long time.

Aahz.
