What about just plain steel tubing? That would work, and I could get the fitting ends lathed and welded on, with the other ends getting plate welded to blank rhem off! Still maybe not strong enough, but if it was, they may actually be usable. Never planned for usable spikes, but would be nice to have that ability. For that I would need to find a genuine atticle to copy from.
