[QUOTE="MrSimon, post: 246220, member: 5461"] That's a neat site. They have a huge selection and the prices I looked at for aluminum angle and sheet looked pretty good. Unfortunately, the shipping cost for aluminum sheet and angle is almost as much as the cost of the metal. For example, a 4x10 sheet of .063 is around $140 plus another $120 for shipping. An 8' section of angle was $25 and shipping was another $25. Not everyone has a local metal distributor in their town, but I bet there is one within a 90 minute drive. It might be worth it to make the trip. There is a place ([url]https://www.steelliq.com/steel.html[/url]) about an hour from my house that has fantastic prices on aluminum. I can get a 4x8 sheet of .125" 5052 aluminum for $114. Its in Delaware so there is no sales tax. I just make a big list of what I need, save my pennies, then head down on a Saturday morning and stock up. [/QUOTE]
