Source for aluminum question

[XJZ]

Hey guys:

Does anyone know of a good source to get aluminum plate or blocks at a decent price?

I'm looking for 6061 in roughly these sizes;

All will be 11 x 16 iches by a depth of;
.375
.5
.75
1.5

Figured this would be the place to ask. :)

TIA

I buy most of my metal from Shapiro. They have been great to work with. They will sell about any size I've ask for.

their catalog is really outdated so you have to call and check availability and prices. Danno

Just something I´d thought I´d throw in, I happened scross a an aircraft surplus warehouse. Place is huge, all sorts of exotic metals, wiring harnesses, heim joints, check valves, hydrolic pumps, feel like a kid in a candy store. Always wondered what they did with the stuff they striped off of old airplanes. :D Like a trip to the junk yard, only cleaner.

Check ebay, there's alot of scrap metal for sale.

Thanks.
