[QUOTE="overboard, post: 268074, member: 6547"] I did the same as some of the others. luckily I found a metal salvage place that sells aluminum by the pound. I bought all the aluminum sheets there. angle was a little harder to find. had to turn to some good old redneck fabrication. found some square stock, and just NICKED the corners with a table saw. got 2 nice angles out of it. also bought 1 pc of 25' - 1 1/2x1 1/2 x 1/8" angle. the 25' cost was just slightly more than buying two 8' pieces. I probablly saved $300-400 by scrounging. Morris B. Glick is where I got the sheets, near Fleetwood PA. outside of Reading. So anyone near this area, that's planning on doing major mods., should check them out. he also had 5'x10' in stock. nice when you're working on a wider hull. He had very little angle when I was there, keep that in mind if you go there, but he could get it in at any time. he also has tons of diamond plate. [/QUOTE]
