Right now I am at the same cost, about 550 for materials (1.5 x .125 SQ Tubing, 8x4x.125 sheet with cut charge, 1.5x.375 flatstock, bearings, bearing housings, and shoulder bolts for pivots). I definitely can use thinner gauge material but for my first one I wanted to go a little heavier duty for ease of making it.
