WTB: 72 x 24 Metal stand or who can make one

[reef_doug]

I'm looking for recommendations on who can weld up an nice 72 x 24 metal stand.

Should I use 1-1/4" or 1-1/2" Steel square tubing?
What gauge?

Also looking for recomendations on who to do the powder coating.

Thanks
Doug

If you don't find anyone, I can build anything metal you want.

Shoot me a PM and I'll get metal prices for you. I also know a powder coater ;-)

Just a thought, but you may want to think about the cost of stainless versus powdercoating. Powdercoating is more susceptible to rust and is surprisingly expensive. Surprised the hell out of me, at least...

YMMV

Stainless is isn't rust proof, and powder coating isn't all that bad.

You should consider your budget, and goals and then try and find a solution that fits your needs.

I think a polished stainless stand would be cool, but $$$ also.
