Been stalking this thread for a while, thought I'd join the fun!
The picture is of a bike design and linkage fork design I've been working on. Wanted something simple, cheap, and bulletproof. Hopefully, the picture shows up.

Certainly my good sir. I mostly started this because I was bored, but then I thought it would be cool to actually build someday. I just wanted to make something indestructible and cheap. I could also put whatever shock I want, and even just the for travel. Do have some questions though. Would 1.5" 6061 aluminum tubes work for the stanchions (I don't know if that's what they'd be called) and if so what wall thickness? I also was thinking about some 4130 Chromoly but it's heavy, wouldn't mind a wall thickness suggestion for the chromoly too.
