My local scrappy is having a hard time, very little material is coming in. However that is good for me! The other day I came away with 6 feet of 60 x 25mm alu bar plus some odd plate plus 28kg of brass square and rectangular bar for £30. Today a brass bar end 65od x 90 plus 3 pieces of Al toolplate (30 x
140 x 400) plus 4m of mixed Al bar 10 - 30 dia All for £15 I did see some 7" diameter by 1" thick brass disks at £5 each but I have already turned my flywheel so let them go Actally went looking for some Al to turn up a carburettor float bowl but saw nothing close to size. Did buy (in the £15 lot) some 42 and 53mm copper tube so will turn some ends and fabricate out of that. (The old float bowl (ex generator) is rusted through.)Richard
