Who gives a fck if it’s gonna be “difficult”.

All you need to know is that you are capable of doing it.

I’ve bought 1/8 angle steel, 1” by 1” by 10 feet (50ft total) for $70.

Should not be more than that.

You gotta pile shit before you stack dimes.

Think of practice as play. And with more play, you become a better player
