Thank you for the offer on the FEA, but I should be doing the design and analysis since this is a project that is meant to be a learning experience for me. 
My solid parts are still in aluminum at this stage. But think a triangular prism 3/4" thick. I wanted some uni to run around the perimeter of the triangle, then I could use the 0/90 cloth that we have (or the tri-weave) as a shear web on each side. At each vertex I wanted to somehow capture an aluminum cylinder that could be machined for a bushing (much like the Rebel Racing parts).
I should be able to have some strength requirements by next week.
