how thin for the thin wall 2 inch? and how long or what number of what length pieces? saw cut or faced and chamfered for welding?

for the 2 inch tubing

semi thin wall. its only for holding my rods on the side of the cart. but id like all my rod holders to be the same thickness so it looks uniform. 8/10 would be the idea i will also be making surf rod holders to stick in the sand thats why im saying 8/10 peices

with that said a 10ft stick should do me perfect.

so 1ft general size smallest id say would be 10inches
^^ as long as its not an angle cut to make the 10inches straight cut 10..

hope this helps.

i am not sure on the tubing size yet... as far as length.
