Thank you for all your nice comments.
I considered some thick brass plumbing fittings, but for cheaper i got 1000% more brass for what i paid by using rod. The tubing is far too thin that i have access to other than the plumbing brass tube connector. Plus it is easier to design.something i can turn on the lathe.
I believe i used 30 thou brass strips. 1/2 " inch wide for the cross hangers. For the plates i used 10 thou.
