[TheForge] Re: Odd size stock

[Patty Draper/Bill Robertson]

Bill, my evil twin,  Let's see Kelly Brothers Sheet Metal.  I threw that 
whiny guy out of my taxidermy shop years ago (I think I burned that bridge) 
and believe it or not I have pretty much gone through the list you offered 
up.  Everyone kept referring me to Admiral Steel.  They purport to 
specialize in all sizes of stock.  Sure enough there it was on their web 
site under flat stocks offered.  When I called however (and after being 
bounced around and off the line several times) a pleasant salesman said he 
had never seen their web site, and when he looked at it , said " oh, I see 
it now. I'll call you right back".  (That was several days ago).  I just 
find it interesting that in this modern industrialized nation of ours you 
can't find a simple off sized stock.  Maybe I have gone about it wrong and 
should have started by googling  the China sites!   Bill
