If you want a really sturdy machine then you cant really oversize the frame material, within reason I might add. Box section steel itself isnt really that strong unless you start going into heavy wall thickness stuff and as Jazzcnc has said getting your construction right to start with will make all the difference and would save you £800 on machining.
