[QUOTE="tsaints1115, post: 285838, member: 10007"] Try googling metal suppliers and find one that sells "used" metal. The place I buy from has the exact square aluminum tubing you're looking for at $2.50 a pound regardless of size. That may seem like a lot until you realize new metal is closer to $5.00 a pound. My winter project is to replace the wood/carpet deck with an aluminum one and I bought enough sheet to do the job and aluminum channel for bracing and spent less than $200. [/QUOTE]
