Pennsylvania - Places to buy material?
« on: August 03, 2016, 06:21:34 PM »
Anyone know of any local places to purchase wood and 4130 in Pennsylvania.  Looking to save money on materials instead of buying everything from Aircraft Spruce.  Shipping costs add up.

I bought my 4130 seamless tubing from PA Steel Co. Bensalem PA.  Pricing was competitive with ACS and Wicks and only charged me $50 for delivery, 20' random lengths.  ACS or Wicks shipping would have been close to $200.

Good company, I even negotiated a little less/ft for the 5/8" being I bought 7 lengths.
