Anyone in southeast PA / suburban Philadelphia area have a good, local supplier they have used for steel? I must not be calling the right places, since those I've contacted don't seem to be willing to entertain small orders.

Thanks,
Todd

Where do you get your welding supplies? They almost always know a good place to get steel.

Try Dillsburg Aeroplane Works in Dillsburg, PA.

Its near Harrisburg but they have a great selection and great prices.

Poboy - good suggestion. I'll pursue that route.

a.moore - I know about Dillsburg Aeroplane Works (I actually grew up in Dillsburg). They are currently my backup plan. Unfortunately they are about 2 hours away from me, and I was hoping to find someone more local/convenient.

Thanks to both of you for the good ideas!

Todd

Best prices around. If you go there make sure you wander through the buildings on the right.
Never know what you will find
