Hi

I wanted to know an online source for ordering metal sheets and tubes.
I tried engine search and ebay but found nothing, or if there was, they were not US or Canadian shop.

Check out an industrial fastener shop like Brafasco... Look for some stuff called shim stock.. Comes in varying thicknesses and is even brass.. Would work well for plates..
