I would go with aluminum tubing and possibly run a fan thru it to cool it down. I have seen a few people do it that way. Was talking to nicole about that and decided to look it up

2" Aluminum C Channel is the way most people are going and fans are a must for security

Yes they are leds.. and Lawrence you can get the metal at industrial metal supply in burbank. I'm sure that you can get it out there. Maybe home depot or lowes

You have to go to a metal supply yard lows and home depot only have 5/8'' and that would cost a fortune to build

I got our 9 feet of u-channel from Burbank Metal Supply for only $12. He sells his metal by weight and not length, so it was way cheaper than you would ever find it at Lowe's or Home Depot.
