I want to echo this. Buying aluminum from the hardware store is very expensive. It is much less expensive to buy in larger quantities online.

We buy from OnlineMetals.

Consider buying:
1"x1" angle
2"x2" angle
1"x2" tube
1"x1" tube

Depending on the game sometimes you need stronger the .125" thick and sometimes you need light weight .060" thick. We buy a mixture.
