Absolutely not Sir; 1x1/2 OD tube (short maybe 2"s) welded in two or three places inside a 1-3/4 OD tube about 4"s long, then the down tube is slid over the smaller tube and held in place by a 1/4x20 button head bolt.............No kidding! In the truth to the matter the short tube is then fully welded to the normal hoop also 1 3/4.

That's why I have gone to 2" OD (thin wall if you will-.120(?)) with the modified 2" x 1/4" and turning it down just so it fits tight into the 2"OD tube and it will be welded 360's.
