I could use some brainstorming on how to approach the rusted cluster
shown at http://members.cox.net/mhorowit/cluster/ - Thanks, Mike

Wow, you don't ask too much, do you!

What a mess. Like the other said, secure the location of the tubes, cut off
at good part and splice (or replace the whole tube, for the diagonal and
uprights) and fit it up to make a new cluster. Not any other choice, that I
am aware of.

You definitely need to cut that one out and start over. With rust that
bad at the cluster, I'd be checking all the tubes, particularly that
lower longeron pretty closely a ways in either direction!!!
