So I'm looking for three, 2 foot sections of 2" Nom 2.38 OD pipe....either aluminum or steel. Home depot doesn't have it. Lowe's doesn't and the 3 metal yards I went to only sell it in 20 to 60 foot sections and charge 5 bucks a cut on top of the 85 to 150 bucks for the entire length. I looked for scraps and everything.
I looked at onlinemetals.com and just ordered a bunch of aluminum channel and I find the price alone for three, 2 foot sections, either steel schedule 10 to 40 or aluminum schedule 40 is almost as much as the 20+ foot sections with cuts locally. What happened to the good old days where a 20$ bill or 2 went a long way and people liked to help.
Any ideas or does anyone have access to it? I am in the middle of building probably the most overpriced launch pad and I'm too far in to turn back. :bang:
