    See this is real. I can't tell you how many times in my 47 years I thought I would knock out a 3 hour project that became a 9 hour project. DIY life comes with its own timetable. It tests a man. However we are resilient and determined. Projects like this build that resilience.
    Side note: This is also why I never question the pricing of a plumber or electrician. They have the years of experience and knowledge that I am paying them for.

    Some other things you want to get to look at is the elongation rate of tubes. Some stretch more when bent and can deform more than others. Others stretch less and are prone to tearing. Also hot rolled and cold rolled will bend differently. When it comes to the sheet metal you also have hot and cold rolled, but the plasma cutter won't care as much about that as the bending will. But if you do get hot rolled you want to make sure its "hot rolled pickle oiled" (hrpo) and doesn't have mill scale on it. If it has the scale it will off gas when you go to weld it unless you grind it off. I work in the metals industry. Programming cnc sheet and tube machines. Lasers, benders and such. Never ran a CNC plasma cutter, but a few coworkers of mine have them in their home shops. I can pick their brains about some stuffs.

    another pro tip.
    buy a Sheet Metal Gauge Finder.
    its a flat circular tool that you can use to quickly determine thickness/guage of sheet metal. has measurements for gauge size on one side, and decimal values on the other side. useful for learning to convert gauge into decimal thickness.
    not saying your calipers (the pee pee measuring tool) wont do the job, but a sheet metal gauge finder is always in a fabricator's tool box.

    Tubing is usually structural and used for a variety of projects. It can be round, square, steel, aluminum, plastic, pvc, etc. It’s also typically more precisely measured and defined by OD (Outside Diameter) and WT (Wall Thickness).
    Piping is only round and is usually only used as a carrying vessel for liquids or gasses. It’s measured by NPS (Nominal Pipe Size) and Schedule (Walk Thickness). It also doesn’t have strict tolerances like tubing. For most of your projects you’ll likely be fine using cheaper piping unless you need it to have higher tolerances or not be round.
    To determine steel vs aluminum your best bet is like you said with a magnet. You can also typically tell by weight and sheen. Steel is more gray and less silver.
    Someone else chime in if I’m wrong but that’s just what I’ve acquired over working in and around shops. Also, smart move on the scrap metal. Most people getting into fabrication start off with scrap.
    I might suggest trying to get into some CAD or rough sketching your ideas of paper just to plot those ideas onto something to keep you on a linear path. 👍🏻

    You’re over thinking it. You’re making “art” projects. Mild, cold rolled steel is all you need. Don’t even worry about stainless and carbon is for making tools/ knives (it’s hardenable) Just use tubing. Pipe is a vessel tube is structure. Measure it OD/ wall thickness whether it’s square or round. Also you’ll learn to just look at aluminum and tell the difference. It’s also significantly lighter. But just get a small keychain magnet… I build hotrods from the ground up as a day job. Feel free to reach out.

    Pvc pipe. You will never have to wax or worry about buying new trucks. It's super lightweight dirty cheapo and dependable. Only con is it doesn't give the same satisfaction as grinding metal. It's like practicing baseball with tennis or ping pong balls. All in all. It will save you a ton of money and make you a better player.
    I built my own skatepark in my teens and never had to replace any pipe in the 10 years I skated. It doesn't rust either. It saves money and is perfect to practice on.

    Easiest way to see if its steel or aluminum is to try a magnet. another way is try to hit it with a sanding disc and if it sparks its ferrous, aluminum is non-ferrous. also aluminum is very light compared to steel/stainless. They also make guns to scan metal and it will tell you what type of metal it is, but that's an expensive option.

    There are a couple of easy ways to tell Steel from Aluminum.
    1) Aluminum is NOT magnetic, ALL STEEL (except most STAINLESS) is magnetic. use a small magnet to test if in doubt.
    2) If you cant tell if it is stainless steel vs aluminum, aluminum is ALWAYS lighter weight, given that size is equal.
    you may come across "galvanized steel" that has a look of stainless or aluminum (the galvinizing is just an outer coating on the steel)... but it is still magnetic.
    Tube vs Pipe.
    Tube is all you want... unless you're filling the inside with gas or liquid, then piping is what u want.

    .250 (quarter inch) wall thickness is TOO thick / expensive, especially for your needs, .125 (eighth inch) or .187 (three sixteenths inch) would be more suitable structurally and financially for your skateboarding projects...(a roll cage for your car might be better suited for .250 inch wall thickness)
    the thinner the wall, the less cost, also easier to fabricate/bend.
    i'd personally go with .125 inch wall thickness. it's plenty strong, trust me, you're not building tanks, lol. just me eyeballing the coping on your mini-ramp, it looks to be .125 or .187 wall thickness there... check for comparisons sake and tell me if im right, heheh.
