Default Can I make an AL flange for my D-series T-25??
I have the ability to machine pretty much anything out of Aluminium, but I can't do steel. Is there anything wrong with running an aluminum flange to put a T-25 on the HF or STD manifold? I can't see why it would matter, anyone ever do this?

AHHH, I was wondering about that, but figured it wouldn't be a problem! Thanks for saving me the time and $$! Looks like its time for me to head to the F/S forum to find a flange, lol...

Steel isn't that hard to work with, just more labor for you. Break out the hacksaw...
