I decided to go with 1x4s. Even with good structure design, sometimes you just can't beat mass to handle whatever life throws at it. Plus, it gives me an easy way to attach a "cup rail" and fascia when I get to that part.
The legs are 1x2s and are just beautiful. They give me a place to easily run braces between sets of legs, and it looks really nice.
One last parting thought: I should have gotten the big box of screws.
