I have been thinking of doing the same. But on a much larger scale using epoxy for the frame.

I gave up on epoxy when i found out metal is 3 times heavier ( and more expensive ), but it is very hard to find heavy metal here. I did find round ones at Fi 120mm, but it takes ages on the mill to get them to something usable, and a lot is waisted.
I had 2 pieces of 150X60mm, sent them to be drilled and tapped so they can be attached as L shape, they made a mess with the holes so it was crooked by over 2mm, left it there. F@#$$$##@$%#. Those were nice.
