1/4" ABS Plastic is what you see there. Available pretty much anywhere. We got ours from McMaster. It is about the nicest, lightest and easiest thing we have found to work with. Everything else is either too heavy, too thick, or too ugly for our tastes.
Here are some more pictures for ideas and inspiration. There are plenty of better examples out there, too. I have always been inspired by teams 60 and 207.
