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
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...
