Aluminium Squares

I am looking to get hold of some aluminium sqaures in 4mm thick ali.

I need 10 of 100mmx100mmx4mm and wondered if anyone on here could supply them for me as I know a few of you have access to metal cutting equip.

Obviously happy to pay the going rate and p&p.

thanks,
Rich.

But a Gilly would give a much better edge

I can slice a chunk off it tomorow as i'm of shift till thurs,i'll grind a strip just over 1 metre x just over 200mm off and you can tidy up and chop to your measurements.

It'll look a bit rough with the grinder to chop it but hey its free

i cut my floor out with a grinder (only 1.6mm ally though) and a little bit of filing to take the burrs off and its fine, not rough looking at all





beware, I've got yellow skin
