To expand on John's post, we started doing this for Championship in 2014. Rectangular frame meant angle aluminum, boom done.
This year, since we had an
octagonal frame, we took two pieces of 1/8" flat aluminum and put it in a sheetmetal break. (I want to say each piece was like 4"x12", but it really doesn't matter.) We bent one piece for the front and back angles, and the other for the midship angle. Then they went on the bandsaw and were cut into shorter-in-height pieces with identical angles that made assembly pretty straightforward for a frame shape that obnoxious.
