Darren,

I know it must be very frustrating for you, but as I have tried to explain, if you can afford to buy a 13 foot length, and cut it up and store it, it would be a lot cheaper than paying model engineering rates.

Even if the supplier is 30 or 40 miles away, once you get it verified that they do a cash sale and pick up service, if you are passing there any time, even months in the future, just call in and pick up some bulk buys. If you are making a journey anywhere, check in your yellow pages to see if any are on the route, and add an hour to your journey so you can call in.

Ralph called to see me earlier this week, and when we went down to the scrap yard, the cupboard was bare, they had just had a clearout. But I told him to give me fair warning when he is coming across again, and I will call in over a few days and pick him up some of the stuff he is looking for if they have it come in. I am sure I could do that for you when you next come across, as long as you don't mind getting a mixed bag of useful stuff, at very nice prices, and if I can get there before Stew.

That's how I bought my SS stock, I figured quantity was the only way to make it practical as the price dropped significantly.

Hence you see me using it often, cos I have a little bit of it......

If I'm lucky I'll be able to buy in some steel stock "before" it runs out !!!
