Default How much did you spend making your dumptube?

I need a dumptube for my 35mm Tial WG, and I'm wondering if it's worth it to buy the flange, piping and have a friend cut and weld it, or just buy this for $48 shipped:

Thoughts?

cost me around 30 bucks, 12 shipped for the flange and 20 for piping, had someone weld it for me to dump out under the oil pan

benefits of making it yourself are that it will fit your application the way you want it to

negatives are that if your lazy, just buy one

I thought I could get away with that same dumptube and I would not recommend it. when we were installing it my friend had to do like an hour of welding pie cuts to get it to fit, then add some extra pipe to make it long enough to actually do anything. its better to just make a custom one I am actually going to be taking mine off and doing a close loop some time this week.
