[OCCRA]: 2" aluminum square tubing..

Does anyone know a place where I can find it? Two or three years ago our team found some, and we forgot where it was that we had found it.
Thanks in advance..

Re: 2" aluminum square tubing..

Try Yarde Metals, or your local metal supplier. Yarde has a drop zone page where you can buy less than full sheets and lengths. These are cut offs so you can save some money.

they cut everything to size you need (no minimums), and they normally are willing to negotiate on price (especially if you have cash with you when you go there)....we recieved a significant discount on our aluminum there....

Re: 2" aluminum square tubing..

Here's the odd idea for you...in our area we have a tent company who will give us their spare alluminum tubing. We've got some very nice stuff....and they've willingly donated more than we need. So if you have a tent company, which I'm highly doubting anyone will have in their area, check them out.
