Go to Metaland and get some 50mm flat bar 6-8mm thick.
its only mild steel, you don't wanna use stainless or anything like that.

Thanks - I got a galvanised flatbar for brickwork at home
Its 75x8 so I'll just use that
We weren't sure what to use - it was $7 for the stuff your talking about there. But.... yeah
Thanks
