Mine is made from 1 1/2 Angle Iron. But ive seen some with 2 inch square tubing that look really strong. Do a google search and look for pictures of guys rigs.

Sometimes you can find it at the scrap yards....and it much cheaper than buying it new

Go to J&I Manufacturing in Madil, OK. Just go straight up 377. They also have a website.

Where is the best place to get square tubing? Because im an 18 year old on a budget from a former thf member, lives in Anna. I'll try to get his email for you. very good prices. but limited selection. I also hear that a steel place in Bonham is good for cost.
Forum says "Veteran Tracker". I could not track a garbage truck into a fireworks factory.

If you are in Whitesboro go to KMC fabrication and talk to Marc or Mike. They are good guys and can get you a fair price. They may be 2 or 3 cents higher per foot than J&I but you will save that in gas money.
They are about a mile north of dons BBQ on the same side of the road.

I just built one with 1 1/2 14 gauge square tubing and it turned out great.
