[QUOTE="danmyersmn, post: 111718, member: 2096"] also from the metal supply store buy the full stick. I found the buying the full piece. 25' at discount steel for me, was 1/2 the price of 2 10' pieces. The cost of cutting is a big piece of the price. At discount steel they will give you 1 free cut if you by the full piece. My last trip I bought 5 25' pieces and asked them to cut them at 12 foot. I took my 12' and 13' pieces and stuck em out my passengers window and drove to a local park because they wouldn't let me cut them on site. I pulled em out and cut em shorter so they would fit in my van. I needed to do this so that I could lock it since I park in the nastiest part of North Minneapolis. Anyway, find a local metal dealer and buy as long a piece as you can to save the most $. You may want to check on using the Cedar. I have read that you don't want to use cedar for structural support.
