In the Dallas/Ft.Worth area we have a building supplier called "Seconds and Surplus" which is, as it's name implies. You may be able to find a similar company that has building materials for under retail in your area. Then, it's just a matter of the right tools and plans you can probably find on the internet.
Don't forget eBay also has items like this probably showng up once in a while.

My brother built a bar in his lounge by using corrigated iron. Then he painted it a deep burgandy with a painted shiny black top.
Corrigated iron should be standing up. That way you can put a curve in it if you want to.
The iron looks great if it's old with a few nail holes and lumps on it. The top was made out of an old door.
The finished product looks like "Old Settler" furniture.
