FAO anyone who can weld - or just anyone that know: Weld els

You can buy lengths of tubing in various shapes that you can weld together to make oyur own manifolds etc. Yanks call them "els", but I can't find any mention of them on UK internet searches. Are they known under a different name over here?

Ive never come across that word b4 mate. Yes you can buy lengths of tubing of various diameters/wall thickness but the tooling required to bend the tube and keeping the same bore size all the way through is expensive. MMA is pants, as a minimum use MIG or if your a expert..........TIG :D
