Sheet Steel Offcuts (Aberdeenshire)

Post by 111Robin » Fri Jun 16, 2017 8:38 am

Does anyone know where I can get some sheet steel offcuts around Aberdeenshire ?. Typically 20 & 16 gauge ? (for bodywork repairs)

Cheers. I dug out an old door skin which i think is good enough as I'm only repairing small areas but for future reference where do you get yours?. It's around 1mm I'm working with.
