A buddy of mine put me on to these guys. They seem pretty reasonable for short runs of some interesting stuff.

Larry, I can vouch for those people. My last project I needed 3/32 stainless rod of course, for the pull rods. We have a "Metal Supermarket" here and I checked with them...$300 for 64 ft of 3/32 303 stainless!
I then contacted speedy metals and they shipped the rod to me via UPS, to my door for $54. Beat that!
By the way, I think this section is very useful...imagine if each one of us post one web site to a store that we found to be good, what a great resource it will be!
I will post some URLS in a separate thread... Canadian and US ones.

Thanks for vouching for these guys Bent. I was hoping it wasn't a too good to be true kind of deal!

thanks for the tip i have purchased short run brass from MetalsDepot and QuickshipMetals.com and your supplier beats them hands down.
