Aluminum Sheets in US?

[peterpan188]

Hey guys,

Where can I find 1/8in to 1/4in aluminum sheets online in the US? It can be straight from the mil, because I have a machine shop available to me. I need size about 24x24in (standard), or custom cut to 14x14in for my aleph 30 case's base. There aren't many local shops around (long island), so where can I find them online for a comparatively low price?

Also, I am looking for 1/2" to 1" thick acrylic or lexan, depending on the price. Does anyone have a good source?

Thanks,
Peter

Check with/ask commercial sign makers. I have one that I visit when I need aluminum sheet.

Looks great, going to take a trip there tomorrow.

Online Metal seems to be a little too pricey with plastics. Is there a cheaper place?

Thanks,

Contact this guy, he sells on ebay but will also quote online through email.
I've bought from him many times, 1/8" sheet, 24" X 48". I usually get 5 sheets at a time.
