I got another quote yesterday for $85 a stick on 1.75x.120 1020 HREW which is about $4.25 a foot. This is not something I have to do today so I can wait awhile. I am going to check a few other places first to see what I can find.
Benny if you are going to place and order in the next month or two I am definitely in.
Leach I looked on NC4X4 but did not see the particular post you were mentioning I could easily have missed it do you know where it was?

I used Matt @ Independant 4x to order my last bit of tube. I can't remember off the top of my head, but i believe we were getting 2" 120 wall dom for just under $5 a foot. 1.75 DOM was about $4/ft. Matt had mentioned that he was getting it @ $3.85/ft, but i didn't feel too bad with a 15¢ per foot "service charge" since he was handling the purchase and storage. Benny might remember better than I. that's without delivery, tho. The problem you run into is that no supplier (i found) in VA will deal with you for less than 1000 feet... hence the retarded $8+/ft quotes. ryerson tull wouldn't even sell me DOM unless i broke 1000 ft since its a "special grade"...


and the best quote i got was for 1 stick of 2x2 .25 wall box:
























$18/ft... lol $400 for a 22ft stick. sure thing.
