Where to buy sheet metal in New England area?

[ct71rr]

Hi all, I’m looking to buy a 4’x8’ sheet of 18ga sheet metal in the New England area (I live in Massachusetts, don’t laugh). Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!

Try Ryerson Steel, go to their website might find one closer.

You don't have to fabricate your own trunklid,just buy one!

Google ' Metal Supermarket' see if you have one in your area.

Haaa! How’d you know that’s what I was thinking of doing??

Thank you all! I can’t believe what a 4’x8’ sheet of sheet metal costs

It's a relatively flat trunklid and the curve isn't that radical, it's doable. I still have the other trunklid if you want it.

I'll definitely take it! Thank you! I can grab it this weekend - or whatever works for you.

Around 1970 wanted to buy a 4X8 sheet of steel. Didn't have a way to transport it. Ask how much to cut it in half, $35 that was $12 more than the whole piece cost.

I was quoted almost $374 for the sheet. I had to read it twice, I thought I misread it. And I would have to pick it up, which is fine, over an hour away.

Hahahah you must not buy steel often! Not to mention aluminum, or pretty much any metal..
Prices have increased exponentially (obscenely) since 2020.........
Supercool that you found a member willing to help you out.

Yeah, I was naively thinking $200ish...Holy crap was I off!!
