Re: BoM Question

It is my understanding that you must indeed quote the 1' x 1' price, since that is the smallest bulk size available and would cover the 10" x 10" piece you actually used. Basically, what it boils down to is that to get a 10" x 10" piece of aluminum, you have to spend the money that a 1' x 1' piece costs...you cannot actually buy a 10" x 10" piece at the price-per-square-inch that you paid for the 4' x 4' piece.
