save your self the money and cut down a stop sign,preferebly were its need most.it makes a good rail and the chance of the police catching you are minimal

Wow, I don't even know how they can make things that cheap. Good materials alone are over $500.

I hopped the fence at the DoT and 'borrowed' two of the 10 foot square rails they use for stop signs. Not the greatest flat rail, but hey, it didn't cost my anything. But i'd recommend someting of a little more quality.

Not to mention the costs of building the legs, the skirts, the joints, and the feet. There's a ton of work associated with making a good rail too. The more tech the rail, the more labour required. Good luck to you guys making rails, what are you using for materials?

exactly dan....
i just picked up 98 feet of '2 by 4' stainless steel...the good shit like martocks kink rail that mark and james built...
it cost $500 for the material just for 98 feet...98 ft will make 2 rails that are 18 feet in length....labour will cost 200-300 dollars and the skirts near 300 as well...
so my price of 450 is cost...it can not be matched for what it is...

Yo jeff, I made another rail the other day, just a long straight rail. I'll post some pictures up here for you, we're going to set it up along with the other rails and boxes in the city where I was storing the stuff this summer. Come out for a session.
