Making own stuff, tips please

Well i was looking around and decided i'd like to try and make my own panhard rod and lower control arms. Does anyone have any tips or ideas of how i'd go about doing this? what type of metal should i use? Just for kicks and giggles i'd try something with titanium, but that's just a tad too expensive for me.

Here is how to make the lower control arms:

And look here for the panhard bar:

The maker of those is an engineer and also road-races his car, so you know they are strong enough.

Good luck.
