I see little advantage in going to a steel bar unless you just happen to have the steel lying around at the right price. If/when I have a go at it I plan to use solid Aluminium bar. It may be a little more expensive but it will also be significantly lighter than steel. I'll just have to see which one of the local engineering firms owes me a favour at the time to get it machined
