Another reason I couldnt really do much of the load testing is the way I stuck all the piping together. I did it in a way that none of them are technically connected in solidworks.... that way I could make a parts list with lengths and even print out the coped cuts for each pipe should I want to.
Hopefully the FEA will at least isolate the major stress concentration areas so you can address those.

That's the problem; they're rather complicated. I plan to send them to Advanced Design Concepts in Pewaukee.
