What is your experience to date with non-stainless parts atmo?

Have built 8 fillet brazed frames and 1 non stainless lugged frame non of which have failed (even with 100kg sitting on them)

I would wait until you have doubled or tripled these numbers. Stainless is an aesthetic that draws
folks in, often for questionable reasons. I say that with all the love and support I can muster atmo

Are you the "client" and the builder? Not saying Mr. Sachs is off base with the advice of more experience first, ( especially since most of your work was not lugged) but speaking as a guy who regularly builds unusual stuff, sometimes you just have to scratch an itch.
