[QUOTE="airshot, post: 497590, member: 1183"] Actually bends quite easily, you won't need or use the tempered stuff like the boat bull is made from. Just some .050 or .060 aluminum sheet. I was a toolmaker working at the time so I had a shop full of equipment, but easy to do at home. Mostly riveted mine, but could easily be welded if you have acess to one. There was a couple fab companies advertising generic made screw on wells back then, not sure about today. Basically a 90 degree bend as long as needed with a cap on each end. Honestly, have saw a couple home made wells from commercial size eaves trough. Just something to catch and return that overflow !! [/QUOTE]
