| Anybody have any idea where a guy could get about 12'. Must be 2"X 3" 3/16 thick. I have seen some sites with unpolished stainless at $800.00 for each piece. I thought that was quite high. |

I don't know if they've changed but, if I remember correctly, 6 ft used to be their limit ------------- "Farming is a business that makes a Las Vegas craps table look like a regular paycheck" Ronald Reagan |

Most places will have 20 ft lengths or so... You could buy 12 ft, but they normally sell 5-6 ft as it is easier to SHIP.... If you want 12 ft ONE PIECE, look local, or it will be shipped on a Big truck. ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |

| Guys it has to be cut into 2" lengths with 2 holes drilled in them. Sorry I didn't make that clear. |

Hmm - drops are sometimes cheaper - but 12' of drops of 2" each if they cut is going to be expensive . Son just got steel on Thursday - what he ordered last year of same weight and size is now 3 times the price . , most was 2" x 2" x 20ft box tube .Then they charge a delivery fee if order is not over $800 - that was no problem as the bundle I unloaded was $2,500 ------------- Life lesson: If you’re being chased by a lion, you’re on a horse, to the left of you is a giraffe and on the right is a unicorn, what do you do?

re: 2" lengths with 2 holes drilled in them. well that is a different kettle of fish !!! find a local fab shop, dumpster dive(with permission) if not, find online in small sections, then have a shop punch holes and cut to 2" 'HAS' to be stainless ? if so, what grade(that'd be a spec to....) ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

Not sure if you have any wiggle room on your dimensions. If you do you might look at a product called Unistrut. They make SS angle clips with punched holes. Type 304L stainless. You may be able to modify or adapt to suit your requirements. If not a metal fabricator should be able to cut and punch the angle to your specs. 800-586-4787 Try this number, distributor in Ohio. With your quantity they should be able to ship UPS small package. ------------- "Most people find it easier to believe a simple lie, than the complex truth" |
