Steel frame building material?

Hello everyone,

I wanted to ask what quality of steel is acceptable to use for frame building. I mean I understand not to use steel plumbers piping. But does it have to be Reynolds or Columbus steel?

Love an expert(hobby) oounion about frame tinkering

Would love to hear what anyone thinks about taking a frame and making some adjustments. Theres a modification that I've seen online that I would love to try out. Transforming a 26"into a mini cargo bike. Involves extending the steering tube and the fork shaft.

I have 0 fabrication skills, but have access to experienced welders to coach my build. Am I being a silly billy? Any advice would be greatly appreciated:)
