Mk1Mad Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Does anyone know of or recommend any places in Wellington to get flat bar, tube etc from. Im looking for small quantities to make some seat mounts. Looking at around 80mmx5mm x 1m length, 40mmx5mm x 1m length, some 30mm OD tube and some similar sized or slightly smaller round bar.

Mk1Mad Posted March 10, 2009 Author Share Posted March 10, 2009 Yeah, after 5 would be very helpful. Or if they would take an order over the phone and leave it out to be picked up... May have to just leave work at lunchtime tomorrow if possible, or start mega early.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
