Is Kettering close enough?
Try these people....

They are a fabricators, but should have stock that you could buy off them, if not then they will tell you who to speak to.

Infact, if you want it lasering, bending, welding etc etc then they will definitly be able to help you out.

got it sorted now.

2m x 1m x 1.2mm £50.15 delivered

i thought it sounded a good price

Of no help, but I pay ~£12/sheet for 1mm and ~£25/sheet for 1.5mm. From a non-ferrous metals stockist at home. Thats picking it up and paying cash though
