    LOL, ultimately, I do believe that a 2x4 would do just fine for the "towers" that I am going to use. They actually would probably be better than metal, but I don't know of a good way to attach them without drilling more holes, thus weakening the steel.
    They use wood in boats, Navy ships, trailers that hold gigantic construction machines, it would do just fine for holding up some 16ga sheet metal. God forbid we bring that up again...LOL.
    Thanks for the laugh man

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

    No...wood is GOOD... You could use epoxy to fasten it, & then screw, or even nail your plates to it...

    Just keep it away from open flames...
