Thanks for the replies. I'll call the local shops and see how it goes.
Just a few comments on my unsuccessful past attempts to find some 20g sheet. (It seemed like it should be so easy) Lowes/Home Depots around here don't carry 20g. Plenty of 18g and 22g but no 20g. Google isn't too useful in this type of search as it gets WAY too many hits for fabricators. Plus I was looking for actual local experience with a shop that sells 20g sheet. I have called several scrap yards around DFW but none seem to answer their phones or return calls. I'm not sure why they bother to list their phone #s. These were shops/yards recommended by the local welding shops. Anyway, thanks for the input. I'll post a quick followup when I get the metal. --- bill |
