Both of my cross members by the firebox are rusty. One is 90% gone and has to be replaced and the other might be able to be saved, but….
I could buy steel tubes and weld them in, but I was looking at the repair using the threaded inserts and bolts and that got me thinking of using aluminum tubing as the cross members and never having to worry about rusting again.
Sound like a good idea, or have I missed something obvious like a galvanic reaction, or melting do to fire temp?
