The whole lot, both flanges and all tubes were all cut and finished using hacksaw/drill and file. Yes, very tough on my delicate girlie hands ...
Welded by MIG.
A burr is a cutting tip that is used in the end of a die grinder. The die grinder is what i used to basically smooth the internal surface of the thing. Its easy to see how well it works looking straight down the collector.
