Where do most people get their metal supplies from?
I am mainly looking for small lenghts of brass rod and plate to use in my mini-lathe.
I have tried scap merchants but it is a bit hit and miss as to what they have in their bins.
I also tried hobby shops but they tend to stock lightweight stuff mainly for model boat builders and model trains.
Big metal suppliers want to sell you six meter lengths/minimum order half a ton when you only want six inches.
Any ideas?
