Just for comparison I looked up the price for stainless vs. mild steel. This is for square tube as the outfit does not offer DOM in stainless:
Stainless 2"x2"x11ga - 8ft length = $147.20
Mild steel 2"x2"x11ga - 8ft length = $40.48
So, I feel it would be safe to assume about 3 - 4 times the cost to build in stainless just in materials. If anyone has some better numbers, let us know.
