anyone have any idea how this kid made this rail, it looks simple and cheap, just a good sized pipe supported by something, but whats the support and how are they attached? welded? i'm assuming its all steel, heres the picture https://www.newschoolers.com/web/content/pictures/id/126828/member_id/96645/

You have to order from steal companies, and a pipe say 10ft long would prob cost like 30-40 bucks? I'm not sure, me and my friend made a flat rail with 5 supports and it was about 80 bucks + labor.
