Tom 6061 is a common billet compound and I have used it a thousand times for projects in the past, I still have a 4x4 foot sheet of 1" here at my house even though I do not have a waterjet anymore. Yes I would use 1/4" material, its a standard thickness and will do the job easy no need to go thicker.
