Steel - amount to order
Righty ho, boys (and girls? if we have any)
Bit of a slow morning at work, but I haven't got the book with me. I'm sure this was on the forum pre-hack, but; How much steel do I need to order? Just for the actual chassis. I think it is something like 42m of 25x25x1.5 ERW BOX Also; 19x1.6 ERW roundHow much did others order, and was it enough? They will be full 6m lengths. I already have; Chassis platesCheers Sean PS - I will be overordering as I want to build up a little bit of stock for some other little projects |

thats about right for the 25mm box erw, i ordered 4 lengths of the 19mm box but still have one left ,
not sure on the round tube as i used a Triton rear tub so didn,t need the tube. as for ali sheets, depends if you are making your own side panels,bonnet & rear tub? but for the floor & cockpit panels i ordered 2 x 8ftx4ft sheets. cheers andy

My bodywork is going to be a bit of a mix, and I have a little bit of an idea that I might try. I'll get a couple of lengths of 19mm tube, I'm sure I can find a use for anything that's left over. I may not even need it yet all depends what I do for the back end Cheers Sean |

As I could order everything with Parkers online, and specify a delivery date (Friday, recovering from a wedding Thursday ) I did. Delivery was £25, and that includes having all the sheets put onto a pallet. The price for the sheet was 51.72 + VAT. Parkers can be funny about you collecting stuff though, probably with good reason, but it does smack of being a bit 'nannyish'. http://www.parkersteel.co.uk/doc/Cus...Guidelines.pdf Hope that Helps Sean |

Yeah, I use Parkers aswell, just couldn't find the chequer plate! They are a pain with their collection, but now my brother in law has a transit, not such a problem! Cheers Adrian |
