    Hello,

    I was wondering where the best place online is to get square and round blocks of Brass, Copper, Stainless Steel and Aluminum?

    You can also use ebay....people like Speedy Metals, etc. Do a search on things like Fortal, Mic-6, Phosphor Bronze, etc.

    I've been buying metals online for a year now, the best connection I have found is SPEEDY METALS 1-888-744-4140!

    They allways have what I need, and never complain about small one piece orders! They even offer free cutting!

    Everything gets shipped out same day too!

    I found them on eBay, and now have their 800-number in my cell phone!

    My other favorite is Enco.com they have a limited stock, but sell bars by the foot!

    (little review) I got 1 foot of aluminum square tubing from industrialmetalsales shipping was fast and packet good.

    never used them but http://www.mousebar.com/fhome.html is another one. price isn't that good (2.70 pound) but they have a lot of cut offs for 7075 aluminum.

    www.matweb is a good site to look up materials, plus they give you a vendor list.
