DIY Ultimaider - interior "step" material

I'm using 3/8 pex now. It looks great when you put it together, but it rapidly takes a curved set. I'll try 3.8 PVC if such a thing exists and I run across it someday. I'm actually not loving the "ladder" shaped multi-step aider. Tough to get alternating feet in it. May try and more typical climbing etrier.
 
They all gonna take a set/curved only thing to off set that is a 6” piece of flat steel encased in tubular webbing personally I like my fuel line in the tubular I don’t mind the curve and I make my steps shorter because as season goes on and you got more clothes on your step allowance diminishes so I make mine at 13 to 15” and allow the weighted distance I got short legs and can easily climb a 3 step aider with ease

I definitely keep my steps at 15" or under. I'm short-legged anyway, and top that off with winter clothing... fuhgeddaboutit
