Hi, Pete.
I've been using some angle stock I bought at Home Depot for that same purpose.
It's steel about 1.5 inches on a side, has both round and oval holes, with some
sort of bright plated finish. I just drilled out a few of the holes to enlarge
them for the barrels and then bolted the angle stock to my tower, both at the
top and at the base. They've been there about 18 months with no sign of
rusting so far, although admittedly I live in Arizona ;)
You can see a picture of one at the bottom of this page:

Subject: [TowerTalk] coax cable shield grounding
A few years ago I recall there was a guy whose main business was
fabricating sheet metal chassis and enclosures, but who also made
stainless steel grounding bars out of big angle, with multiple holes for
barrel connectors. I think he was in PA, but not sure. Can anyone
point me in the right direction?
