Looks good. What's the dimensions and weight?

That's basically what I plan on building. I'm told it's lighter than 1/8" x 1" aluminum.

Besides the fact that I have the capacity to weld steel but not aluminum.

That's what I'm thinking as well. I like my current platform, but wood isn't the best material to use.

It looks like it will work just fine.

We built a deck out of 1x1x.120 steel and it weighs 1 pound per foot. You can build a steel deck pretty light.

That deck looks good man
