doesnt really help me

Any steel supplier, look on google or the local phone book, for steel suppliers.
Just a little FYI, standard length is 20ft, most suppliers will charge you to cutit if you order say 10ft, its gonna cost as much or sometimes more to buy anything less than a full stick.

ask them if they have any cut-offs. they sell them cheap cause none of their big customers/contractors want small 6ft pieces.

or you can visit some junkyards/scrappers. there should be tons of them around the island area.

That is true, but need said. Anyway, since this was moved to the appropriate forum, here goes

Also, if you are looking for a supplier in your local area, try down in the wheeling neigborhoods forums, where people from your area are. That could help.
Also, Look in the phonebook under metal scrap, I found one that is right on the campus I go to school at, ironically enough. Also, search for scrap yards around Long Island, not just there, you may have to drive, but it is well worth it. Also, when you find some, price check, One yard wanted twice the price for tubing, and theres was outside and rusted. Keep an eye out and good luck. Others have done the fab, and it looks great.
