A hardware store? Or just find some scrap laying around at a construction site?

if you know someone whos parents work in the sheet metal shop at a base, then you can steal or what i like to call "borrow" it from the government. tax and cost free. XD

just grab a street sign thats lying around, and lay it over where the wood meets the ground, and it will ease the ride.
