    Thanks Matt and krstahl,

    I think I would be interested in letting it go pending some details. I’d be happy to talk directly, sending you a message.

    Thanks Gustav, I will look into the hotter irons you mentioned. The raft isn’t in the EU though. I’d probably be willing to ship it and take a loss on the materials, but I understand if you don’t want it.

    It’s in Arizona, USA for future reference.

    Thanks Matt, I really appreciate this genuine kindness and willingness to help. I have the coverite black baron iron, as recommended, and have been running it on the highest temperature setting. I did spend some time before the construction phase attempting to learn to make solid welds, and it seemed to work. I was able to get pieces bonded to the point of being unable to pull them apart. But I had so much difficulty with the tube-to-tube seam welding that I guess my welds were much lower quality, and I’m having a hard time fixing the mistakes.

    If someone really would want to buy it, I think that I would be interested in going that route. If you think it’s possible, what can I do? I’m usually pretty competent at making and fixing things, but it has been rather demoralizing and I’d rather not end up with a construction issue in the wilderness Again, really appreciate the assistance.
