As the ones i built at haultech were done by chalk on the concrete floor and a large angle measurement device

i have that program and i still work with chalk setout lines on the concrete. it works out more accurate as working to numbers produced by software is only as good as your eyesight reading a protractor. the difference between 60° and 60°10' is lots over a bend with a metre of tube at each side.
how much tubing in yours?

Yep, Chalk lines and a few set test bends (30, 45 and 90) does the trick.
Also build a Moon Buggy, that way people can't work out if you farked up or if it was meant to be like that!

about 8 sticks.
5.5 of 32nb
2.5 of 25nb
i think sam's seems like it uses so much because the mechanical tube he uses comes in shorter sticks.
