Anybody know a place to get some 20g sheet metal in the Dallas area?
I don't need much maybe 2'x2'

Thank You,

Well,
Finally made it down to Metal Supermarket.
Nice little place. Ended up getting 8 sq ft of 20g, 2 sq ft of 16g
for my hell hole & firewall project and 8 sq ft 24 gauge galvanized for a
magnetic bulletin board project for the wife (she came along to the metal shop).
They even cut the metal to size with their HUGE sheer.

All this for $15. Not too bad.

Thanks for all the help.

Glad I could help. Those guys were real good to me also. I didn't really know what I wanted. They let me rummage around and gave me discounts on leftovers from full sheets.
