I just checked my local favorite supplier.
http://www.discountsteel.com/items/6063_Aluminum_Rectangular_Tube.cfm?item_id=147&size_no=15

6063 rectangular extrusion 2x4x1/8 = $103 for 21.1'.

Looks like a change or my mistake.
You will need a local supplier in order to avoid a big shipping charge.

That makes it a big difference in my decision path, except I am all set up.

Nick,

Are your beams close enough to the forms that you do not have to adjust the position of the forms to keep everything straight?
