I don't know about no one should start from zero, many things might not have been discovered or created if we all followed that.
I do agree with Eric's comments, square tubing is pretty uncommon in all buke frames save but for specific sub assemblies. The main advantage I see square tubing has over round is the easier ability to attach other flat stock to the tubing. But anyone who can braze/weld should also be able to add mounting tabs, threaded bosses and such to serve as the mounting points. Andy
