View Full Version : buying sheet aluminum
I am in need of a 5'x6' sheet of 2024T3, 0.025".  Most of what I find
available through the likes of Aircraft SPruce is only in 4' wide
stock.
Anyone with any leads on where in North America I can purchase.  I
recall seeing an advertisement in Trade a Plane with a lady inside a
rolled up tube of aluminum sheet, but cannot find the ad anymore.
Thanks in advance
Mike

That's Airparts, Inc:

They have standard 4' coil, and a lot of other good stuff. Good
prices, good service.
Thanks, Bob K.
