Where to buy steel for panels in Auckland

[Pepo1 1]

Hi there,

I'm just starting out with mig welding and wanna buy some panel steel to start playing with. Where do people buy their steel in Auckland?

Cheers!

Go to your local sheetmetal engineer and get some of his offcuts, box of piss usually covers it

Probably depends where you are.

I use north shore metals in rosedale. They have offcuts and etc of bar stock but dont cut sheet steel on site. The ususly have some half sheets tho.

I think a full sheet (1200x2400) of ~1mm zintec was $45 or so last time i got one.

Exactly. A full sheet for 45 is better than a few offcuts for a box of piss

look up ironmaiden4 on trademe, they're in Onehunga and sell lots of steel items at very reasonable pricing....
