Can't help you on heat treat shops in LA, but the one I go to
here (in the Seattle area) has no problem doing material down
to .025.

Also, for no additional charge, they'll pack my parts in a box
of dry ice to keep them in W condition (I think that's what it's
called) so they won't harden up right away. That way you
can bring them home and you get about 96 hours to straighten
them before they fully harden up.

Good luck in finding a heat treat shop down there that will work
(there has to be scads of them in the LA area I would think.....).

Here is a question I am asking for a friend. He bought these 2024-T0 wing
ribs and wants to have them heat treated. He is in near L.A., CA and
couldn't find a shop that would do anything thinner than .04".

Does any of you know how to heat treat formed ribs and possibly know a shop
in the L.A. area? My friend is especially concerned about getting them
straight again after they came out of the oven.

Thanks a bunch!
