Re: Construction materials

If you want favorite material to work with as far as budget goes aluminum by far but if money was no object i would be using a titanium or carbon fibre. both of which have their disadvantages (titanium-dulls drill bits and other cutting tools fast)(carbon fibre-expensive and must be custom made for the most part)
So aluminum is easy to work with light and fairly strong.
