How much metal to get?
Hello,
I have a general idea of how much metal to get and to be safe I came up with these numbers: Square aluminum 1"x1"x1/16" extrusion- # of 6' pieces: 10 should last us a while with prototyping and pre-season robot/training with weleding and what not. Aluminum sheet: I am having a bit of trouble with this. How much? of 5052? of 6061? what thickness? The place we will be getting it from has up to 0.19 inch thickness. Aluminum plate at all? I have heard that 1/4" aluminum plate would be good to have. What would we use this for? structural purposes? FYI, We will be using www.discountsteel.com to get our metal from. They are a local business and we would be able to go over there with a pickup and not have to pay for shipping. thank you in advance, Vivek and team2264 EDIT: How much do you think we would have to spend?
