It is a bit although it would just need a bit more machining down. I bear it in mind, thank you

Merchant Stock (low carbon HRS) bar sells here in the U.S. for $1.60/lb ($3.53/kg) at this instant.  1 inch bar (which I usually dress to .950 inch (24.13 mm)) or 1.25 inch bar is available in 1/2 increments of width from 1 inch to 12 inches at almost any steel yard.  If you can find a "drop" from another cut (i.e. drawing to an inside straight), you can pick them up for $0.95/lb at my local steel yards.  2 inch and 2.25 inch bar is generally available though you may have to hit a couple of "yards" to find it.  ???

Hi Dawsey,

Have you tried the metal supermarket? Check out their website, they have branches up and down the country.

I get most of my stuff from them.

Cheers, Griff.
