[QUOTE="benjineer, post: 203488, member: 3833"] If you want to use aluminum, stay away from hardware places. Look for an industrial metal supplier. I just bought 1/8" thick 1-1/2" angle for $25 for a 25ft piece. It cost me $40 last year, so prices are down some. 1-1/4" angle was $20. A 4x10 sheet of 1/8" was about $140. It probably costs a little more in your area, but should be much more affordable from a bulk supplier. You just may have to show up with a hacksaw to get it in your truck or pay a little more and have them cut it for you if they don't do home delivery. [/QUOTE]
