straight rails are mad easy to make, but when you get into c rails and ranobows and S rails it takes a really really expensive machine.

yeah man, just make one out of PVC...I just made my 3rd one for under 30$...

They slide great, so whats the point of spending $300+ for something you could make for $30?

find a cheap pipe bender that can put that large of a radius in a flat bar. My uncle has a shop that does structural steel and the machines arent cheap
