2 8' Rails out of 3" C
5 6' Crosssills out of 3" C
2 8" Side caps out of 3" flat stock
Riser Spacer Thingys out of 5" about 8-9' total (Taken out of Scrap Pile)
2.5" (call it three to be safe) inch stake pockets x14 (3 front and rear, 4 on each side) out of 4" Stock is 42"

so about:
46' of 3" C (6' was in the scrap pile)
16' of 3" flat Stock
8' of 5" C (again scrap)
4' of 4" C (again scrap)

My metal order for the 40' of 3"C and 20' of 3" flat stock was 88$

The only note is that for the 4" stake pockets to work the 2x4 wood had to be ripped to make it more narrow and cut the corners off because 4" C isn't 4 inches inside and the corners are rounded.
