Q. Best sheet metal design?

I will preface this by stating that I am reposting this on behalf of my brother. as he hasn't used CD that much...

Hello everyone. I am trying to learn more about what: thickness, type and alloy other teams have made their sheet metal drive base frames from. My team tried .125" 5052 aluminum, but it was a little heaver and more malleable than i liked. i would love to hear what your team used or any knowledge you may have on this topic. i don't quite have a specific design in mind yet, i want to see all the options i don't know of first
