Tube steel is probably the cheapest route. Easy to repair and fairly easy to fabricate with the right tools. Chromemoly is stronger and lighter but has to be TIGed. Guess it just depends on the tools you have or have access to...
any preference or advantage between round and square tubing? i figure the square cant really be bent as well but it would seem like it would be good for areas that are straight or cut to use at 45 degree angles
i have access to pretty much any tools i need but i would prefer to keep it relatively cheap so i think im gonna have to go with tube steel. at least for my first go at it. maybe i can make a second version with better materials once i have a good design built and functioning so i dont waste the extra money on something im gonna screw up
once i get this whole project started i will have to post a thread on it and let everyone know how its coming along lol gonna be a bit of a wait tho
