Yep.  Exactly.

Sometimes I get stuck in a rut from using so much 'recycle' stuff for racks 
and stuff that I forget about that kind of stuff.  I've got a good rack 
already.  It may be made of wood, but it's got over 2ton of steel on it 
right now and is doing it's job just fine.  Anyway, this stock is 
bright/cold finished, it'd be a shame to use it to hold rusty and/or hot 
rolled stuff.  :>))

Jigs and fixtures has promise though.

For those who are curious, the 1/2"x1" tube is 16ga (I made a typo in my 
first note on this) and 80" long, price is $2ea.  That's about $0.495/# or 
25% discount.  Not a world class price, but good enough to buy some and 
figure out what I'm gonna do with it later.
