If you can find mild steel go for that itll work for rails and its pretty easy to drill for a drill bit go for a HSS jobber drill bit theyll work well

make sure to get steel, preferably hot roll steel, your dimensions for the width of the rail should probably be at least 3"

all i did was find a 12 foot rail in a dumpster, i sanded it down and painted it. it cost me 4 bucks for paint and nails and 20 for wood, it was sick
make sure to get a steel rail, not aluminum, because it can dent, and it should be thick enough
